Electrical products distribution giant Sonepar acquired Electrozad Supply Company to strengthen its OEM/industrial business across southern Ontario, Canada.

Electrozad, founded in 1955, is an authorized distributor of Rockwell Automation. Headquartered in Windsor, Ontario, Electrozad’s presence spans across the province with branches in Windsor, London, Sarnia and Chatham. The company currently has over 100 associates.

“Electrozad has been one of the industry leaders in the southern Ontario market for decades,” said Sonepar Canada President George McClean in an April 3 news release. “They have a strong team and great supplier partners such as Rockwell Automation and Siemens.”

Electrozad Chairman and CEO William Smith said joining Sonepar will “provide the support, vision and expertise required to ensure continued growth” for its employees, customers and suppliers.

In March, Sonepar announced a major acquisition for its U.S.-based operations with the addition of two Michigan-based distributors with a combined 36 locations across the state and about $400 million in 2023 revenue.
