E.F. Lombardi Co., Charlotte, N.C., now covers North and South Carolina for Minneapolis-based Engineered Products Co. (EPCO). The new relationship is an extension of a 14-year relationship between EPCO and Emery Electrical Sales, which was recently purchased by E.F. Lombardi. Also as a result of the sale, Rick Emery has become vice president/sales manager for E.F. Lombardi. “We are thrilled to have added EPCO’s quality products to our mix,” said E.F. Lombardi President Carter Drinkard. “There’s great synergy between our existing lines and EPCO’s industry leading products such as its new, innovative Stairwell Light Fixture, fixture whips, temporary lighting, tube guards and more.”

EPCO President Jack Schuster said, “Emery Electrical Sales has been a wonderful partner, and we look forward to a productive relationship with E.F. Lombardi. We appreciate the company’s vote of confidence and having the opportunity to more than double our representation in the Carolinas.”
