Our Story

Olympus Foundry was born from a single insight: critical aerospace and defense components demand a domestic supply chain that’s faster, more flexible, and digitally driven. Founded in 2024 by metallurgical engineer Isaac Mares and based in Utah’s Salt Lake Valley, our journey began with a vision to reinvent sand casting from the ground up—melding advanced digital tools with lean, automated workflows.
