Lorimar Group, Inc.

What Lorimar Group, Inc. does

Lorimar Group, Inc. is a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) founded in 2001 and headquartered in El Cajon, California. The company specializes in mission-critical communications equipment and services for U.S. federal government customers, including the Department of Defense (DoD), Veterans Administration, federal civilian agencies, public safety organizations, and first responders. Lorimar operates primarily as a distributor and authorized service provider rather than an original equipment manufacturer, holding a GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract (GS-35F-0369S) that enables streamlined procurement by federal buyers without separate competitive bidding.

The company's product portfolio spans approximately 7,400+ SKUs across six partner brands: Motorola two-way radios (for which Lorimar is a Certified Service Center), David Clark communication headsets and intercom systems, Cadex battery analyzers and chargers, IMPACT Platinum Series headsets and surveillance equipment, Plantronics, and Lorimar-branded power products and accessories. Beyond hardware distribution, Lorimar offers professional services including Motorola product maintenance and repair, intrusion detection system (IDS) alarm services for DoD and federal facilities, and radio rental services to government customers. The company is registered in SAM (CAGE CODE 3XXG8) and holds California Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (CA/DVBE 37960) certification.

Lorimar's business model combines hardware sales, recurring service and maintenance contracts, and short-term radio rentals, all transacted through GSA contract vehicles or direct government quotes. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company operates with a headcount of 1-10 employees and has no disclosed external institutional investment, parent company, or M&A activity. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales directed at federal procurement offices and program managers.
