Perko Inc. is a privately owned, fourth generation family corporation. Originally founded as F. Persky & Co. in 1907 and then became Perkins Marine Lamp Corp in the 1917. The original product line consisted of hand formed and soldered navigation lights, ventilators and chart cases fabricated from brass, copper and galvanized steel. Over one hundred years later, Perko, Inc. still produces a variety of similar products with individual attention to detail and craftsmanship, but as a result of our commitment to quality and responsiveness, we have expanded into a variety of other modern manufacturing processes and materials.

We currently have over 425,000 square feet of in-house capabilities from product design, tooling, manufacturing and assembly. Vertical integration has provided independence from most outside vendors. With the exception of a few basic items virtually everything from components to finished products are manufactured in the United States from raw materials under one roof.
