According to a friend at Hodgdon Powder Company they became sole owner of Goex as of this morning. Starting Monday January 5th Tom Shepard, President of Hodgdon will also assume the title of President of Goex.
Hodgdon's plan is to leave manufacturing where it is and to aggressively promote sales and improve distribution

EMAIL REPLY FROM HODGDON....
As of January 2, 2009 Hodgdon Powder Company purchased GOEX. We intend to make no changes in the location of manufacture nor in the personnel who manufacture GOEX. As the largest share of the GOEX production goes to the military and commercial applications, we have great expectations that sales will continue strong and the sporting market will benefit from the volume being produced.
Rest assured, we want GOEX to go on for another hundred years.
