Par-Kan Company

The Par-Kan Company history dates back to 1958, when S.L. Parker started a metal fabricating business known as Parker Industries. Today, Par-Kan Company continues to thrive by implementing the company mission statement started by S.L. Parker some 35 years ago, "To provide our customers with quality products, when they need them and at a fair price." In the mid 1960's Parker Industries, serving the agriculture market, was joined by the founder's son, Stephen ("Steve") Parker. In the late 1960's, Parker Industries, using their welding technology and engineering skills, began manufacturing refuse containers under the trade name of "Par-Kan".
