Murray Corporation of America

Murray Corporation of America run from 1600 Clay Street, Detroit Michigan was, from 1925 until 1939, a major supplier of complete automobile bodies to Ford. Non-automotive stamped steel products were added during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Production switched to wings for wartime aircraft and other aircraft components. Post World War II, it moved further into stainless steel products including cabinets and kitchen sinks. Washing machines, plumbing and bathroom fixtures, cutting tools and truck engine parts followed. Its last automotive products plant was sold in 1955.

By the 1960s a Fortune 500 company Murray later passed through the ownership of Dyson Kissner-Moran to Household International which is now a subsidiary of HSBC.
