QUINCY, Mass. – Granite City Electric Supply recently concluded an Asset Acquisition of Baynes Electric Supply, and Baynes and Jones Electric Supply to enhance its position as the leading independent electrical distributor in New England.
The complementary combination of Baynes Electric and Granite City Electric locations creates a broader service network with greater inventory breadth, and delivery options for New England customers. The combined companies will provide more locations for customers throughout southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. With the addition of the Baynes’ four locations, Granite City Electric Supply Company now has a current total of thirty (30) locations throughout New England.
Granite City Electric President Steve Helle and owner Phyllis Papani Godwin wish to extend a warm welcome to the Baynes family and employees. Godwin notes, “this transaction creates future opportunities for mutual growth, personally and professionally, in our combined efforts to serve all customers.
