Vision Solar operates across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Massachusetts, and Florida, with further offices to open in Connecticut, Arizona and Texas, as well as two additional locations in Florida, in 2021, before the business expands to Puerto Rico in 2022.
The company recently opened its second major facility in Blackwood, New Jersey, which is said to become the company’s national headquarters as well as home to its sales and training divisions.
