To celebrate the milestone, CES held a company-wide day of giving to honor the values founder Tom Mackie established when he started City Electrical Factors (CEF) in the United Kingdom in 1951. Those same values continued to guide the company through its expansion into North America as City Electric Supply (CES) in 1983. “Bringing our teams together across North America to serve their local communities and support service members deployed overseas reflects the values of service, generosity, and community that have shaped our company for 75 years,” said CES co-CEOs John Gray and Blair Feidler. “We are grateful to be part of so many communities and have the opportunity to serve our neighbors.” Get the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.A welcome email is on its way.

Together, CES team members delivered more than 70,000 pounds of canned goods and supplies to local food pantries across North America through more than 700 deliveries. They also assembled 550 care packages filled with 6,600 essential supplies and handwritten notes for service members deployed overseas. “Founder’s Day is a powerful reminder that giving back has always been at the heart of who we are,” said Social Impact Manager Karen Gray. “Seeing thousands of our team members come together to fight hunger in their local communities and honoring our military through Soldier Care Kits is incredibly inspiring. The impact we can make when we work together is truly extraordinary!” CES Cares, the social impact division of City Electric Supply, is how we give back. Created in 2016, CES Cares brings together our charitable and volunteer efforts under one mission: supporting those who need it most in the communities we serve.
