Our team came together this past weekend to help us move into our new location!

This was a tremendous effort from the whole Advance Electrical Supply team, and we want to thank everyone involved for their hard work! We are now open in our new building and look forward to all the new capabilities this expanded space will provide as we continue to serve our customers.

Check out some photos from our move below!

We're moving!

We will be starting full operations in our new location at 4444 W Ferdinand St | Chicago IL 60642 on Monday, July 24.

This move will take place over the upcoming weekend. Please reach out to your Account Manager for specifics about delivery impacts.

On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we pause to reflect on and commemorate the life and work of Dr. King and the continuing fight for justice and equality across our nation.

We are so thankful we were able to participate in this year’s annual event with Border States to recognize the 903 Logistics employee-owners who make order fulfillment a reality on a daily basis.

Advance celebrated with a company lunch on Monday, celebrating our one team and recognizing our logistics award winners!

LOGISTICS EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR:
Willie Pope. (Top left) Willie has been with Advance for 45 years. From working with five co-workers to now thousands across the country, he has shown his commitment to the company he calls home. He is an example of a key team player and we have been so thankful to have him on our team for so long.

DRIVER OF EXCELLENCE AWARD:
Tom Bailey. (Top right) He is always a team player putting our customers’ needs first with no questions asked. Tom is truly a ray of sunshine anytime that he is around and is a prime example of the kind of employee-owners that we want to represent our company.

Thank you to ALL of our logistics teams who are always helping behind the scenes!

In 2015, Aaron and Mike bought Advance Electrical Supply with the belief that we could build something special and we are excited to announce that we are joining Border States, a 100% employee-owned business!

"Joining Border States embodies what we wanted to become in the future," said Aaron Hughes, President. "We talk a lot about acting like owners and to be able to give our team members the ability to be true owners is an incredible opportunity for them."

Did you know Advance Electrical has a dedicated gym space with a NEW locker room area AND showers?! Our employees gain team-building skills while also being able to work on their health and fitness goals.

A good mid-day workout is an effective way to wake up both your brain and your body, which can improve your mood - and your productivity!

Want to see the space for yourself? Come in and meet our ONE TEAM, and get a tour of our entire facility that stretches across FIVE buildings!

At Advance Electrical, we are coming together to support one of our team members and his hometown. We take for granted the safety and security we have in the United States.

This type of gruesome activity should not be tolerated, and we are asking for your support to help create awareness and move in a direction for the people of Mexico to enjoy the same peace and security that we have.

We also would like to support Tony’s town financially to help with funeral expenses and medical costs. Please consider donating and helping to spread this message.
