The company was founded in August 1981 as '''Hauppauge Record Manufacturing, Ltd.''', a vinyl record duplicator, and pressed over 100,000 vinyl records per day. In 1983, another company was formed, called '''Hauppauge Tape Manufacturing, Ltd.''', to serve the entire audio marketplace. In 1985, yet another company was formed, called '''Hauppauge Video Manufacturing, Ltd.''', to serve the video marketplace. In June 1989, when HRM ceased pressing vinyl records, all three companies merged, forming '''Hauppauge Manufacturing Group, Ltd.'''
