WESCO COMPANY PROFILE
Thanks to a loyal customer base and committed workforce, Wesco is the company it is today.
SINCE HUMBLE BEGINNINGS IN 1972 WESCO HAS GROWN TO BE ONE OF THE LARGEST INDEPENDENTLY OWNED ELECTRICAL WHOLESALERS IN IRELAND… Global growth
T here have been many employees and customers who have helped Wesco grow over the years and, without the support from their loyal customer base, this would not be possible. 50 years on, and Wesco now services many large customers across Ireland and abroad. In recent years Wesco has supplied customers working on projects in the United States,
Australia, UK, France, Holland, Germany and The Nordics. Over the past 50 years, many great customers, suppliers and staff have retired or moved on and it would be impossible for Wesco to be the business it is today without these people. Recently retired Managing Director, Matt Curran, joined the company from school in 1973. Matt worked his way up from the stores to trade counter, on to purchasing
before becoming the General Manager. Matt oversaw many changes in Wesco including the move to digitalise the business in the late 1990s when Wesco went live using a computer system for the first time. Matt was promoted to Managing Director in 2002 and navigated the company through the highs and lows of the early and late 2000s alongside Financial Director Jean Callaghan. “Many staff have helped shape the business over the years, and this continues to this day with the next generation of dynamic managers coming through the ranks.”
The friendly and experienced team members throughout the four branches go above and beyond to cater for their customers.
