Crum Electric Supply was founded in 1976 in Casper, Wyoming by David H. Crum. The company now has 12 branch locations in Wyoming, South Dakota, Idaho, Utah, and Colorado. Crum Electric Supply has grown steadily over the years into the premier electrical distributor in the Rocky Mountain region. In 2006 Crum Electric Supply was awarded the Distributor of the Year award for performance by Affiliated Distributors. This is the highest honor for any distributor within Affiliated Distributors.
Crum Electric Supply has grown through acquisitions over the years. These acquisitions include the purchase of Gifford Electric Supply in South Dakota in 1987, General Electric Supply Co. in Rock Springs, Wyoming in 1993, GEM Electric Supply in Idaho in 1997, Component Specialties of Grand Junction, Colorado in 1999, and Omni Electrical Distributors of Denver, Colorado in 2002.
