Parker Manufacturing Company
Manufacturer of machine tools and kitchen cabinets, and an industrial landlord1
Parker Manufacturing Company was a machine shop during World War II that manufactured tools. It is also a manufacturer/distributor of metal kitchen cabinets and sinks, and an industrial landlord in Santa Monica, CA. The company designed and manufactured a unique sheet-metal shear (a large machine tool for cutting sheet steel) and was able to provide expedient delivery in only 30 days -- a huge advantage over other manufacturers who were taking around two years to make deliveries due to wartime production backlogs.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
