HISTORY
It takes great passion to navigate the changes that life brings, and we’re proud to announce that after 30 years, the MOPERC passion is stronger than ever. When comparing the 144 square foot “shop” where the first MOPERC conga drum was made with the current 6,000 square foot facility that houses modern, high speed equipment and several artisans, it is clear that the mindset toward continuous improvement is driven by passion rather than by profit.
