Cooper Electric Acquires Ciro Electrical Supply Co.

Cooper Electric announced today that it has purchased Ciro Electrical Supply Co, an electrical distributor based in Philadelphia, PA. Founded in 1971, Ciro is a family-owned and operated business that has evolved into a full line stocking electrical distributor, currently in its second generation of ownership.

Ciro services a diverse customer base of small and medium customers in the Center City Philadelphia territory with an active, well-maintained counter.

Cooper is excited to welcome Ciro to the Cooper and Sonepar USA family. Ciro is a complementary fit to Cooper’s core business.

The acquisition reinforces Cooper’s strategy to create branch locations in areas that best serve the needs of its customers. Ciro’s staff of ten employees will join the Cooper team.
