Doran Manufacturing

Cincinnati, Ohio-based Doran Manufacturing opened in 1953 and was incorporated in 1954. The company was started by Edward Bauer and Robert Mayer and was named after their wives, Dorothy and Ann. These two men were Amp representatives who saw the need for low voltage interconnection devices like terminal boards and blocks in appliances and other machines. These blocks made the assembly of the wiring for the machine much more efficient.

New product development is the lifeblood of our company and we will continue to invest in creating products that correspond with our higher purpose and resolve our customers' problems. Doran continues to actively seek out opportunities to help our customers solve their problems in the transportation safety products and electrical connection segments. Our team members are looking forward to resolving unknown challenges and continuing to build a bigger and better company.
