Company Profile

The legacy of Cooper Corporation dates back to 1922 when Sir D B Cooper established Cooper Engineering in Satara. Thanks to his Midas touch and astute vision, the historic town of Satara witnessed a new wave of industrialization without losing its rich heritage that finds its roots in ancient times.
A multi-faceted personality, Sir Cooper was also one of India's revolutionary social activists, who vociferously upheld the rights of untouchables in a pre-independent caste-ridden India, hand in hand with towering personalities like Karmaveer Bhau Rao Patil, Dr. Ambedkar & Prabhodankar Thakeray.
He was the president of Satara Municipality and was subsequently appointed by the British as the PM of Bombay Presidency and was also crowned a Knight of Garter.
Cooper Engineering has the unique distinction of making India's first Diesel Engine and Iron Mould Ploughs. Some of its other achievements bear testimony to the company’s pioneering strides:
