Moore Brothers

What Moore Brothers does

Moore Brothers Company is a private engineering and fabrication firm founded in 2014 by brothers Oliver and Sam Moore in Bristol, Rhode Island. The company provides vertically integrated custom composite fabrication services — spanning engineering, tooling, CNC machining, component manufacturing, and prototyping — for marine racing syndicates, aerospace and eVTOL developers, and industrial UAS customers. Notable programs include high-performance components for the Bella Mente 74ft Maxi racing yacht, a full-scale seaglider prototype (65ft wingspan, 55ft hull) built for REGENT Craft, and carbon airframe prototypes for GeoScout's 150lb-payload industrial drone.

Underlying technology centers on large-format composite manufacturing: an 80'x20' 5-axis CMS Poseidon CNC, a 5-axis CMS Ares CNC, and a 60ft autoclave capable of 300°F / 100 psi curing, all housed in a 45,600 sq ft purpose-built facility acquired in June 2025 from Symmetrix Composite Tooling. In-house engineering uses Abaqus FEA, Rhino, and SolidWorks to support design-for-manufacturing and composite structural analysis. The firm executes multiple lamination processes (prepreg, infusion, wet-layup, compression molding) and holds tolerances of +/- 0.02 inch on tooling and composite parts.

The business model is professional services / project-based: revenue is generated through direct enterprise contracts for bespoke fabrication work, priced per project by complexity, materials, and timeline. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales driven by industry reputation and referrals in the marine and aerospace communities, supplemented by content marketing (website, blog), Instagram organic social, industry event participation (e.g., Newport-Bermuda Race), and earned media in trade publications such as Seahorse Magazine. Distribution is direct from the Bristol, RI facility to clients across North America and, via the 40OF partnership, the Caribbean and Canada. Long-cycle client relationships (Bella Mente, Team Hound since 2021, REGENT Craft since 2021) and recent large-contract wins indicate a stable, repeat-engagement revenue pattern; the company has not disclosed external institutional investment.
