Member of the Week

Our Member of the Week is Powell Electronics! Powell Electronics is among the largest distributors of electronic components and value-added services. Our focus and expertise include electronic connectors, switches, sensors, and related electro-mechanical products. For over 75 years, they have brought a unique sense of purpose and vision to electronics distribution. 

Powell Electronics was founded in 1946 by Harold H. Powell, who was a Navy electronics technician during World War II. After the war, Harold started selling components from his garage in response to the burgeoning post-war demand for electronic parts. Since then, the company has established an unbroken record of success as a specialty components distributor.

Today, they are a national company with a global reach, representing the most respected manufacturers. Still a family-owned company, Powell Electronics continues to be guided by our founding principles of honesty, integrity, and ethical dealings, plus a sense of urgency for meeting our customers' needs. 

Powell Electronics has been a member for 66 years! ECIA thanks John Barrington, Ernie Schilling and the rest of the team for the years of service to councils and ECIA initiatives.
