Company Profile

About PECO

Since 1935, Producto Electric Corp (PECO) has been an American, family-owned business, and a reliable, trusted, and “no nonsense” source of world-class electrical conduit fittings and accessories for thousands of electricians, contractors, and distributors across the United States and Canada. PECO is headquartered in Orangeburg, New York. While we have a full array of industry fittings and accessories, we make Hazardous Location products for other large manufacturers and are one of only two Underwriter Laboratory-listed manufacturers of Cable Supports. PECO also brings together the ability to support our reps with a full line of fittings including malleable iron, zinc, PVC, steel, and aluminum to address unique conditions such as hazardous location, raintight, liquidtight, etc.

Today, PECO's national distribution network is anchored from our New York location with current stocking warehouses strategically located throughout the continental United States and in Puerto Rico, which supports our Caribbean business. We look to establish long-term partnership with our representatives with our first rep joining us in 1948 and our second in 1956. Both are still partners and it demonstrates the shared values and respect we have for one another.
