Eddie MillinerPresident

Who We AreIn 1958, Joe T. “Tucker” Robison founded Mid-State Electric Supply Company out of the trunk of his car. Working in his father’s hardware store while growing up, he learned the basic principles of building and operating a successful business: Honesty, Integrity, Product Knowledge and Quality Service. Instilling these principles into his company’s culture, his business has expanded into a group of world class, project-oriented companies serving the electric utility, electrical contractor and forestry industries. Crest Industries, LLC, the holding company for these subsidiaries, is a private, closely

held, family owned limited liability company. Crest Industries and its subsidiaries have strong financial resources, experienced management teams and second-generation succession in place for continued growth and success.

Mid-State Supply Company serves customers across the state of Louisiana by providing products and services to electrical contractors, industrial manufacturers, institutions, government agencies, utilities and power line contractors. We also furnish materials to our customers performing electrical projects around the United States. Whether the job is next door, on the East Coast, the West Coast or anywhere in between, Mid-State Supply Company has the systems in place to ensure that our customers have what they need, when they need it, to complete their projects on time.

Mid-State Supply Company provides more than just high quality, reliable products. We also provide the services of a highly trained and experienced staff that has a thorough understanding of the electrical industry. From sourcing products for customers to coordinating time-sensitive deliveries and drop shipments to all fifty states, our team knows that they succeed only when our customers succeed.

Knowledgeable, Experienced PeopleThat You Can Count On

At Mid-State Supply Company, every team member from management to the warehouse staff participates in extensive training. We take advantage of workshops and seminars offered by our manufacturer partners, online learning modules and real-world product application demonstrations.

Our team also has decades of experience working within the electrical industry. We understand the diverse timelines that different projects tend to follow. We understand what materials will be needed for a project, when they will be needed and in what order. We review material lists for what has been overlooked to minimize downtime and keep production moving. Years of experience and continual training has ingrained in our team a culture that makes us be proactive rather than having to be reactive. Our team takes every precaution to make sure that we “Get it right the first time.”

Customer Trainingand Certification Opportunities

Codes change, products change and markets change.

We invite our customers to attend certification training events presented by our manufacturer partners on topics such as exothermic welding, termination of high voltage splices and many other technical applications. We also bring in the experts to provide our customers with training sessions covering detailed market information on topics such as LEED and EPACT changes and opportunities.

Systemized Service from Ordering to Billing

Timing is everything in the electrical construction and power industries, especially when it comes to having the materials on site that contractors need at each stage of the project. At Mid-State Supply Company, we have earned a reputation for keeping our customers informed about the status of their orders. Before an order is placed, we work closely with our customers to develop a delivery timeline. Once the order has been placed, we provide our customers with a detailed bill of materials indicating what materials have been ordered, when the order will be shipped and where the order will be delivered. Our customers do not call us looking for their orders. They don’t have to. Our customers are kept informed throughout the entire order cycle process about the exact status of their specific order. When the last items on the punch list have to be completed yesterday, we are simply a phone call away. We will special deliver or overnight those last five widgets needed to finish the job.

How did we earn this reputation? Simple: We do not just hope that the fax went through, we call to confirm it did. We verify that the shipment left the manufacturer when it was scheduled and that delivery will be made when it was promised. At Mid-State Supply Company, our team follows up and follows through because our reputation, relationships and business depend on it.

Louisiana Based,Globally Minded
