Al Graham began his electrical career at Nedco in Vancouver in 1973. He soon moved to Winnipeg and joined Westburne, where he quickly worked his way up from the warehouse into project quotations. Al was promoted into outside sales and moved to Saskatoon where he would become a sales manager. Al switched to the manufacturing side of the electrical business when he joined the Crouse Hinds team in Vancouver. He was promoted to Area Manager, and then to VP Sales, Western Canada, with his most recent move to Edmonton. In 2005, Al returned to electrical distribution and joined EWEL as a principal and Sales Manager.

“We wish Al the absolute best in his retirement years,” says EWEL CEO Bruce Carson. Widely known and respected throughout the electrical industry, Al Graham’s vast experience, influence, and knowledge propelled EWEL’s growth and success. “Al has done so much for EWEL and the electrical industry in general,” says EWEL President David Carson. “He’ll be missed by the ownership group, customers, and staff alike.” Al is looking forward to the retirement chapter of his life where he plans to travel, spend time with his family, and play golf.
