About Us

WHAT DRIVES US, DRIVES YOUR GROWTH™

Founded in 1953 and located in Emporia, KS, Hopkins Manufacturing Corporation is recognized as the automotive industry's leader in towing electrical products. Living by our mission, the company's focus continues to be make the towing experience simpler and more rewarding through innovation and value.

Simplifying the consumer use experience is more than a mission statement to us, it is our passion. Today, more than 40% of retail category sales are generated from Hopkins innovations and 9 out of 10 consumers rely on a Hopkins wiring product solution for towing. In January 2018, we acquired Tiger Accessories Group (TAG), adding trailer lighting to our growing portfolio of towing solutions and unifying two market leaders under one brand, Hopkins Towing Solutions.

Today, Hopkins sells automotive aftermarket products in more than 75,000 distributors and retailers across the globe. One key to our market leading positions is product leadership. To us, product leadership goes beyond the physical product to a deeper understanding of the end-users' needs. By focusing on their use-experience, our product design teams create innovation solutions to real consumer problems ... resulting in products that deliver higher levels of satisfaction ... and products that generate consumer loyalty for the retailers who stock our brands.
