A leading manufacturers’ representative sales agency, Meridian Electrical Sales donates materials to local apprenticeship programs, volunteers on committees, and engages in speaking opportunities and sponsorships. Their membership in the National Electrical Manufacturers Representatives Association (NEMRA) underscores their industry commitment.
Empowering Workers
The partnership between Meridian Electrical Sales and Champion Fiberglass began 15 years ago. This relationship has flourished through continuous information exchange about potential projects and direct engagement with engineers and contractors.
Meridian Electrical Sales hosts engineering lunch-and-learns and participates in membership organizations like the Independent Electrical Contractors (IEC) and the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (NJATC). These efforts ensure that electrical workers are familiar with Champion Fiberglass products and confident in their installation and application.
“We value our partnership with Meridian Electrical Sales because in addition to facilitating key projects their efforts allow us to build a comprehensive knowledge base for our products and directly support the education of electrical workers,” said Scott Patchan, VP of Sales & Marketing.
