PERKO, INC.
MIAMI, FLORIDA

Perko, Inc. is a privately owned family corporation with operations spanning over one hundred years, having evolved from its origins as F. Persky & Co., founded in 1907, and later becoming Perkins Marine Lamp Corp in 1917. The company remains committed to product quality and customer satisfaction, producing navigation lights, battery switches, searchlights, underwater hardware, cabinet fittings, deck accessories, door latches, hinges, locks, latches, cleats, fishing rod holders, and emission control products for marine fuel systems. Situated in Miami, Florida since 1961, Perko has expanded its manufacturing facilities to over 425,000 square feet, which supports comprehensive in-house capabilities including product design, tooling, production, and assembly. The company prides itself on vertical integration, resulting in reliance on domestic supplies for most components under one roof, except basic items such as light bulbs and fasteners. Notably recognized for its quality standards and versatility, Perko serves not only the marine industry but also provides custom hardware solutions for telecommunications, household appliances, musical instruments, and other industrial applications. This diversification is supported by a rich history of innovation in product design and manufacturing processes. With an extensive catalog featuring more than 1,000 individual products and over 5,000 SKUs, Perko has upheld a legacy of commitment to quality and efficiency, as evidenced by their continuous compliance with ISO standards. After two years of preparation following the release of the draft versions, Perko successfully transitioned to the ISO 9001:2015 standard, marking an integral step in their ongoing dedication to enhanced customer service. With its long-standing status as a trusted manufacturer within both marine and non-marine sectors, and a record exceeding 21 years of ISO registration beginning with compliance to the 1994 version, Perko remains resolute in its aspirations for future growth and sustained excellence.
