Pelican Products

Pelican Products opened its doors in the old-fashioned, great American tradition, on a shoe string budget in an old backyard garage. It all started with a childhood infatuation with the underwater world. A 1949 Popular Science magazine article on homemade scuba outfits was the catalyst that triggered a life-long hobby. That hobby turned into an obsession for making diving related accessories that worked better than what store bought equipment had to offer. Then on one June day in 1975 Pelican Products just "happened". Dave Parker started selling his first invention and innovations to local dive shops as a tiny side business.

Dave's unique approach to superior quality, reliability, and basic "common sense" engineering soon attracted the interest of U.S. Special Forces, the Navy and industrial companies with equally demanding requirements. And so the Pelican legend began...

In 1995 Pelican Products moved into it's new 108,000 sq. ft. administrative, and manufacturing facility, where over 350 employees work with the latest automated molding machinery and sophisticated computer system. Pelican's new state-of-the-art in-house graphics and advertising department services all levels of its marketing and distribution system. Pelican Products now markets its quality products throughout the world with distribution centers in 4 countries.
