CED is one of the largest electrical distributors in the country, with more than 800 locations coast to coast, but here in Sarasota, what matters most is our local-first mindset. Since 1957, CED has trusted its local managers to run their locations like their own businesses, making the calls that best serve their own communities. That’s exactly how we operate at CED Sarasota: backed by the resources of a national network, but built around decisions made right here in Florida. Behind our team is a support system and a culture rooted in service, integrity, and reliability.
Much of CED’s growth nationally comes from opening new locations under the CED name. CED also grows by acquiring strong local businesses. Either way, it starts with understanding what a market actually needs and finding the right product mix to serve it. When CED acquires an exceptional local company that’s a strong cultural match, we typically keep what’s already working, including that company’s name. So if you do business elsewhere in Florida or across the country, you might come across a CED location operating under a different name. The name may vary, but the culture, standards, and core values are all one CED.
