History

Gorman Rupp was founded in 1933 by two entrepreneurs, J.C. Gorman and Herb Rupp. They introduced self-priming, centrifugal pumps to the market; skeptical competitors trying to discredit their design brought attention to the young company. The company has since grown to be one of the world's largest pump manufacturers: in 2021, it had sales of $378.3 Million.
