When Sean first joined the company in 2004 with City Electrical Factors in the UK, we were paving the foundation here in Canada with a clear vision of how to grow and gain market share. Sean has been an integral part of that growth and development. After moving to Canada in 2007, he became Branch Manager quickly working his way to become the Mid-West District Manager in 2013 where he helped open 8 new locations. “I am very grateful and excited to have been given the opportunity to lead our Canadian Team. Having worked my way up through the branch network in Canada, not only do I know the challenges our teams face, but also the terrific teams we have across the country.” – Sean Whittaker Now over 30 years later as Canadian leaders we are pleased to continue moving the marker as we expand further.

With Sean’s expertise, vendor relationships, and forward-thinking, our commitment to customer service will excel in new and dynamic ways. Building strategies to enhance our overall customer experience is in the works and will be announced this spring.
