We Are Bunker Supply.
OUR MISSION
Bunker Supply is a design-forward US military contractor, developing and manufacturing optimized equipment for agents in the field. We exist to optimize operator capabilities and safety through innovation and human-centered design.
Built for the Field.
With a diverse background in industrial design, engineering, supply chain management, and manufacturing, the Bunker Supply team combines and leverages a variety of skills to produce critically effective equipment for the frontlines. Following product feedback received from Homeland Security in 2018, Bunker realized the profound impact that could be achieved by focusing on operator efficiency and safety. Bunker Supply was subsequently built to identify equipment-related problems experienced by government agents, first responders, and military personnel and to design, develop, test, and field premium solutions for enhanced performance in the field.
Designed for Optimization.
Bunker Supply was born to bring cutting edge design and modern consumer product technology to a severely outdated and deficient industry: on-body equipment for government agents. In an industry where rapid iteration is critical in meeting the hardware needs of our nation’s frontline, equipment development has never felt slower. Bunker’s goal is to take our decades of combined experience developing and manufacturing consumer technologies and apply rapid prototyping and efficient manufacturing processes to the creation of military and frontline equipment. The operator experience is top of mind in Bunker’s product development process, both in designing optimized equipment and fielding such equipment to the user with minimal delay. Our nation’s government agents, first responders, and military personnel don’t have the time to wait for solutions, and we don’t think they should have to.
