About Us

Graybar Canada is a subsidiary of Graybar Electric Inc., a Fortune 500 company and one of North America's oldest and largest electrical distributors. Headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, we operate over 30 branches across Canada.

We're one team with best-in-class manufacturers and experts across more than nine verticals: automation, lighting, communications and data, electrical supply, wire and cable, energy, oil and gas, security and technology, utility, and broadband service provider. Our dynamic team of highly trained specialists are passionate about using the power of collaboration and unconventional thinking to pioneer innovative solutions for our customers.

We categorically reject the notion that we're just an electrical product distributor. We're in the business of solving our clients' problems. We're in the business of simplifying our customers' projects and we do that by combining industry expertise, passionate people, relationship-driven service, and best-in-class products so you can build more efficiently and profitably.

Our Strategic Plan: An Innovative & Inclusive Blueprint for Prosperity

Our Strategic Plan acts as our North Star for everything that we do. Its purpose is to drive alignment across our organization, to help us optimize how we do business, chart our course forward.


This innovative and inclusive blueprint for prosperity includes our mission and vision but the most important element of the plan is our values. These represent our beliefs and commitments, thus guiding our behaviour. Our values define our culture, and it is our collective responsibility to uphold these values every day.


We are extremely excited to embark on this next phase of our journey with our customers, our partners, and our people. Together we aim to defend our strengths, grow in any areas of improvement, and create a road that seeks to improve our areas of focus.


We are committed to providing a trust-based, collaborative, and innovative workplace that will help all of us grow. We look forward to implementing all aspects of our Strategic Plan as a foundation for our continued growth, and we look forward to continuing to Build With Excellence.

Graybar Canada History

We officially became Graybar Canada in 2000, but we've been around since the early 1900's. From Harris & Roome in Atlantic Canada and Ellis & Howard in Ontario to Graybar Canada today. We're a company founded by entrepreneurs who understand what it takes to run a successful business because we've done it for over a century.


We appreciate the successes of the past, and are always innovating to ensure the success of the future. Our eye is always on moving our clients' businesses forward. It takes grit and determination to succeed. Our customers have it; we have it. And we'll continue to strive to be industry leaders by hiring passionate employees, leveraging technology, and giving our people the autonomy to make solutions happen for our customers.
