About Werner Electric Supply
Located in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Suburb of Cottage Grove, Minnesota, Werner Electric provides our customers with premier products matched with unparalleled capabilities and services serving the contractor, industrial and OEM markets. From our humble beginnings in downtown Minneapolis in 1920, Werner Electric enjoys a rich history of Electrical Distribution in Minnesota and Western Wisconsin. Our acquisition in 2001 by our Joint Venture Partners Van Meter Industrial in Iowa and Werner Electric of Wisconsin enables all three companies to share resources and best practices to surpass industry standards of growth year after year.
Collectively, we are the 18th largest electrical distributor in the United States. Alongside our solid full line Electrical Distribution foundation, we stand amongst the top 5 distributors of Rockwell Automation products worldwide. With over 25 In-house Engineers specializing in the Automation products we distribute, we provide immediate, solution-centric problem-solving assistance for any application need.
