Quaker Boy

Quaker Boy, Inc. started as a hobby in the home of Mr. & Mrs. Richard C. Kirby. A barber and beautician by trade, Richard (Dick) and Beverly had an extreme love of the outdoors. A demand for Dick Kirby’s call creations and business opportunity led them to start “Quaker Boy Game Calls”. The company is privately held with Mrs. Kirby being the principal owner. Beverly remains as the company’s chief operating officer today. The company name comes from Dick and Beverly’s hair shop, known while in existence, as Quaker Boy Barber Shop and Quaker Girl Beauty Shop. The name originated from the “Quaker” settlement of Orchard Park on Quaker Road in Orchard Park New York.
