S O LU T I O N S A R E I N T H E S C I E N C E
Since 1897, Shakespeare® has been a leader in quality and innovation. William Shakespeare Jr.
started the company as a fishing reel manufacturer, but soon expanded into manufacturing of fishing
line and fiberglass fishing rods. Through innovation in the fiberglass rod manufacturing, the company
started making fiberglass antennas in the early 1950s and has since then grown to become a world
leading manufacturer of marine and military antennas.
Today, Shakespeare® is a global marine electronics brand with a reputation for superior quality,
performance, and durability. With manufacturing and distribution centers in Asia, North America and
Europe, we are positioned to deliver excellent service to our customers worldwide.
