“We have been successfully diversifying our sales channels and increasing our emphasis on new opportunities to promote and deliver Optex’s products to foreign military markets,” said Danny Schoening, Optex’s CEO. “As a result, our international contracts are ramping up and we expect this expansion to continue in the next few years.
