Crawford Electric Supply, a subsidiary of Sonepar USA, opened a new branch in New Orleans on Feb. 29. The main focus of the branch is to help with the rebuilding efforts in New Orleans by providing local commercial and residential markets with quality service and competitive prices.
The facility boasts a 48,000-sq.-ft. warehouse, with a full-service counter area that can handle all sizes of pipe, wire, lighting, and electrical business. With brands such as GE Distribution Equipment, Lithonia, Pass and Seymour, Crouse-Hinds, Ideal, and many others, Crawford hopes to meet all their new customers’ electrical distribution needs. The New Orleans branch will stock $3 million to $4 million in inventory.
“Crawford Electric Supply is very excited to take part in the reconstruction of the great city of New Orleans,” said Craig Levering, President of Crawford Electric Supply. “We are dedicated to not only seeing the Crescent City rebuilt, but also doing whatever it takes to become the No. 1 electrical distributor in Louisiana.”
The new facility is located at 508 Time Saver Avenue, Harahan, Louisiana 70123 and employs 20 people.
