United Electric Supply Co., Inc. was founded in 1965 as a general-line distributor of electrical supplies to local industrial, commercial and construction customers in Delaware. The founder and three employees opened the doors in an 8,000 sq. ft. former potato chip factory that had been converted from a barn. From that humble beginning, United has experienced 50 years of continuous growth.
Today, United Electric is a $200+ million operation with more than 300 employees at locations throughout Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Northern Virginia, and New Jersey. In 1995, employees purchased the company from the former owner and became a 100% employee-owned company.
As a major electrical supplier for the building and industrial trades, United had evolved in relation to technological and marketplace developments. Today, it offers a full range of products and services with concentration in seven major areas: industrial automation, lighting, wire/cable/conduit, gear and control, data communications, electro-mechanical, and energy solutions.
Through a trained staff of engineers and product specialists, the company provides value-added services that include one of the largest inventories of top-quality, state-of-the-art products on the East Coast, engineering expertise, hands-on product testing and training, lighting design and application capabilities, comprehensive automation solutions, on-site trailers, and the warehousing of customer inventory.
