History
As electricity became more readily available in Central Illinois, Charles Meador opened Meador Electric Company, an electrical contractor and supply company, in 1912 in Springfield, Illinois. A few years later in 1919, William R. Schnirring, Sr. began his career at Meador Electric after graduating from Brown College business school in Springfield, IL. Within one year of working at Meador, Bill Sr. became a partner at Meador Electric before acquiring sole ownership in 1929 and changing the name to Schnirring Electric Company.

By January 1932, Bill Sr. transitioned the company to focus exclusively on electrical wholesale distribution. Finding success, even during the great depression, the company re-incorporated as Springfield Electric Supply Company. William (Bill) Schnirring, Jr. joined the firm in 1950 and under his leadership, for 50 years, the Company expanded significantly. Since the 1950’s, the company’s Springfield branch operation and corporate headquarters have occupied the 700 block of North 9th Street in Springfield, Illinois.

For almost a century, Springfield Electric has focused on providing value to each customer throughout the electrical supply chain. The company has strategically expanded to include distribution centers through-out the Midwest to better serve all customers- locally and internationally. Today, Springfield Electric’s family owners, in partnership with hundreds of ESOP employee owners, strive to continue the legacy of delivering exceptional customer service and value to the markets they serve.
