Pelican was founded in 1976 by Dave Parker and his wife Arline—built around the idea that demanding environments require better protection for mission-critical equipment. One of the earliest innovations was the “Pelican Float,” a diver safety tool created to mark locations on the water’s surface, which helped shape Pelican’s long-standing focus on rugged, dependable protective solutions.
