Company Profile
Hopkins began its journey in Emporia, Kansas, in 1953 when E. L. (“Bud”) and R. E. (“Gene”) Hopkins founded the company with a focus on auto body repair tools. Their innovative approach led to the creation of revolutionary products such as the Dial-Pick, a pneumatic pick hammer, and the Hoppy Head Light Aimer, which changed automotive headlight installation globally. Over the years, Hopkins expanded its offerings to include winter tools like the Bear Claw ice scraper and Super Deluxe snowbrush, transforming from a body shop tool maker to a leading consumer products company. With a commitment to excellence and innovation, Hopkins has become the #1 developer, manufacturer, and seller of winter snow and ice tools, catering to the diverse needs of its customers.
As part of its growth strategy, Hopkins ventured into complementary businesses, such as vehicle-to-trailer towing electrical solutions through the acquisition of Olathe Wiring in 1985. This strategic move expanded Hopkins' presence in the market and established it as the top towing electrical solutions company in North America. The company's success has been driven by its founders' philosophy of challenging the status quo and striving to make improvements in every aspect of their operations. Today, Hopkins continues to uphold this legacy of innovation and excellence, offering a wide range of products that meet the highest standards of quality and reliability.
