Valued customer: 

From a single location in Springfield, IL, to 19 locations across Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri, the Schnirring family and the associates of Springfield Electric Supply have been providing high-quality service since 1932. 

The products, services, and solutions provided by Springfield Electric and its associates have continuously expanded over the decades as we seek to always exceed our customers’ expectations and be the manufacturer’s distributor partner of choice. I’m confident Mr. Schnirring would be proud of how we have grown over the years and the legacy of Springfield Electric Supply. 

Today, I’m excited to announce the legacy of Springfield Electric continues as we have signed an agreement to become part of Sonepar USA. We expect the transaction to be concluded in August. 

Sonepar USA, a division of the Sonepar Group, is an independent, family-owned company with global market leadership in business-to-business distribution of electrical products, solutions, and related services. 

As part of Sonepar USA, Springfield Electric Supply will have the resources to grow our capabilities in order to provide enhanced services to you, our loyal and respected customers. 

The Springfield Electric brand name will continue, and you will still work with the same local staff you have come to depend on for all your electrical needs. 

Over the next several weeks, we will share additional information with you as we work through the process of joining Sonepar USA. 

On behalf of the Schnirring family and the associate owners of Springfield Electric, thank you for your decades of business, partnership, and, more importantly, friendship. 

On behalf of Sonepar USA, we look forward to your continued business, partnership, and expanding our friendships. 

Respectfully, 

Chris Scarbrough, CEO
Springfield Electric Supply Company
