I work closely with manufacturers and business people in the greater Kansas City area to assist in solving problems and providing solutions to packaging problems. I have customers that I have worked with in this capacity for over 25 years to keep their shipping needs current and trouble free.

Donovan Company is a Manufacturers Representative organization that my father, Jack Donovan started over 60 years ago. We specialize in the Hearth and BBQ industry and cover Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska.Since I am "second generation" in this business, I grew up hearing about interesting people in the Hearth Industry that I am now working with sons and daughters of people that Jack worked with. Interesting and fun to be able to keep up long term business/friend relationships.
