== History ==
The company was originally founded as '''Keel Manufacturing Corporation''', a division of Pickwick International, Inc. In August 1981, Pickwick International, Inc. sold the company and the company was renamed to '''Hauppauge Record Manufacturing, Ltd.''' The company was a vinyl record duplicator and pressed over 100,000 vinyl records per day. In 1983, the company formed a division called '''Hauppauge Tape Manufacturing, Ltd.''' to serve the entire audio marketplace; at the time, compact audio cassettes were as popular as vinyl records. In 1985, yet another division was formed, called '''Hauppauge Video Manufacturing, Ltd.''' to serve the video marketplace. In June 1989, when HRM ceased pressing vinyl records, it was renamed to '''Hauppauge Manufacturing Group, Ltd.''', with the HTM and HVM divisions folded as a result. In September 1993, HMG opened an optical disc manufacturing plant, which replicated CD-Audio and CD-ROM discs. That same year, HMG became a publicly traded corporation and was renamed to HMG Digital Technologies Corporation. By 1994, HMG manufactured over 55 million cassettes for major music labels, independents and corporations. In January 1995, [[Allied Vaughn|Allied Film and Video Services]] and HMG Digital Technologies merged to become Allied Digital Technologies. This merger cemented its position as the nation's leading supplier of video, audio, CD and CD-ROM duplication to the non-theatrical market, including corporate, special interest, educational, religious and children's programming.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20020806103644/http://www.alliedvaughn.com/adt_h_1.shtml</ref>
