Packard Electric Company

The Packard family was involved in a number of business enterprises in the community of Warren, Ohio, in the second half of the nineteenth century. Those business interests were diverse, including lumber mills, hardware stores, hotels, and an iron rolling mill. In 1890, William Doud Packard and his brother James Ward Packard established the Packard Electric Company, which produced incandescent bulbs. One of the Packard Electric Company's subsidiaries was the New York and Ohio Company, which produced the first Packard Motor Car in 1899. The new manufacturing interest was first known as the Ohio Automobile Company, but the family renamed it the Packard Motor Car Company in 1902.

In 1932, Packard became part of the General Motors Corporation. It eventually became known as Delphi Packard Electric Systems, which still exists today.

Delphi Packard Electric Systems designs, manufactures, and markets automotive power and signal distribution systems for vehicle producers. Delphi Packard Electric Systems was formerly known as The Packard Electric Company and changed its name to Delphi Packard Electric Systems in 1995. The company was founded in 1890 and is based in Warren, Ohio. As of 10/29/1999, Delphi Packard Electric Systems is a subsidiary of DPH Holdings Corp.
