EPISODE 70 | Why Contractors Choose City Electric Supply
City Electric Supply (CES) has been a staple with local contractors across the country for over 40 years.
In the second quarter of 2024, CES experienced 1.9 percent growth for new stores and 0.97 percent growth for grand openings; and recently celebrated the grand openings of CES Tri-City in Oklahoma, CES Foley in Alabama, CES Rock Hill East in South Carolina, CES Clinton Township in Michigan, and CES Mint Hill in North Carolina, while expanding their industry footprint in Florida with the 25th anniversary of CES Palm Harbor.
With personalized customer service, CES team members help supply residential, commercial, and industrial projects nationwide, and the results speak for themselves.
The word is out!
While joining in on the food and festivities of the grand opening and anniversary events, contractors across the country offered testimonials on why CES has been their top electrical supplier.
“We love doing business with City Electric Supply! They’ve been a great partner of Bill Wade and Associates for over 30 years. When CES first came to the market, we were a young agency, and I was a young sales rep. The company has always provided opportunities to build relationships with their team,” said Cindy Wade Brown of Bill Wade and Associates.
“CES is a good company. They’ll definitely take care of you and go out of their way to get what you need,” added Zach Sipes of CMT Electric.
“City Electric Supply is one of the best suppliers we’ve ever worked with. They help us get high-quality products faster. The crews they have, their service, and their patience make our jobs easier,” said Hassan Hamma of Hass Electrical.
“They have so many branches, and every branch you go into, you create a friendship with the team members at the counter,” added Tony Coffey of Southern Electrical Contractors of Charlotte.
“They’re quick to get the products we need. When we order stuff, these guys make sure we get them on time,” said contractor Neal Hellmich of Hellmich Electric.
“They’re close by. CES has the products we need when we’re on the job site. They deliver, and that is so critical for us to be efficient and to get the job done,” added Steve Tremper of Great Dane Heating & Air Conditioning.
The secret?
As a go-to electrical supplier, there must be a secret to the continued success of CES. But, in the words of our team members, it’s all about the people.
“The thing about wholesale is that you see a lot of the same faces every day and build relationships from there. It’s not only fun seeing our branches grow, but also, seeing our customer base grow with them,” said Branch Manager Dru Manek.
Senior Regional Manager Mark Mickley added, “Customers really enjoy coming to our stores because of our level of service. We all work toward the same goal, and that is serving them and moving their business forward.”
