Edmundson Electrical

We are the market leading electrical wholesale distributor in the UK & Ireland and are an independent, privately owned business. We are a ‘business to business’ company, meaning we purchase electrical equipment from the industry’s leading manufacturers, stock those products in our branches and then sell them on at a profit to a wide and varied range of customers – the majority of whom are electrical contractors and installers. We operate from 400+ locations and employ more than 4,000 well trained, dedicated and professional staff. Our annual sales exceed £1.7 billion and, at any one time, we have more than 120,000 unique product lines available and a combined stock holding in excess of £200 million.

Our Trading Brands

“Although we are Edmundson Electrical and more than 250 of our trading locations are Edmundson branded businesses, we also trade under many other brands such as Electric Center, Lockwell Industrial, UK Greentech, EWL Electric and KEW Electrical to name but a few. Our growth over the last 50 years has been organic, but also through acquisition. When we acquire a business, we always keep the trading name of that Company, hence the large and varied number of brands we trade under.”
