With the pandemic’s effects steadily receding and supply chain constraints slowly relaxing, the manufacturing world is now gearing up for an industry-wide recovery. While this presents an optimistic outlook, most manufacturers have to contend with rising equipment prices while ensuring the purchased products meet their quality expectations.

That’s where WorldWide Electric can help.

A leading manufacturer and distributor of high-quality electric motors, motor controls, and gear reducers, WorldWide Electric is ideally positioned to solve every challenge existing in the logistics network. It has a strong distributor network comprising seven warehouses covering the entire U.S. with a capacity—365,000 sq ft of warehouse space—to house more than $70 MM in stock. This gives WorldWide Electric a natural edge to meet and exceed client expectations when it comes to product availability and delivery speed. The capability has empowered it to stay a cut above the rest, even during the peak of supply chain constraints.

WorldWide Electric always keeps exceptional customer service as its overarching mission. It stays true to this goal by taking a ‘boots on the ground’ approach, where its expert sales and technical support team goes the extra mile to meet clients’ expectations. It has also established a 24/7 customer support team comprising engineers and gear specialists to provide access to expert advice anytime without going through too many automated responses. In essence, WorldWide Electric has set up a highly responsive customer-focused business model to serve clients at the speed of their urgency as it caters to an industry where equipment failure translates to business interruption.

“Clients often reach out to us when their production line comes to a standstill due to motor and gear issues, downtime becomes critical, so we offer a same-day shipping option,” says Michael Hewson, director of marketing at WorldWide Electric.

“Our warehouses are strategically positioned, no matter where the client is, we can ship the product within the same day if the order is placed within 2 PM local time and our customers receive it next day most times.”

Apart from swift product delivery, WorldWide Electric is committed to providing high-quality products for demanding applications at competitive prices. With the recent acquisition of Louis Allis, it offers large custom specialty motors and factory-recertified motors.

Building on this success, WorldWide Electric manufactures gear reducers and a complete line of motor controls, soft starts, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and enclosed drives. Its stock product line includes low-voltage single- and threephase motors, a full line of shaft mount and worm gear reducers, as well as helical-bevel gear reducers for applications like pumping, lifting, crushing, processing, and general manufacturing. The extensive product line is instrumental in providing equipment to OEMs, solution packers, EASA motor shops, and electrical equipment distributors across many industry verticals, including construction, power systems, materials handling, and food processing.

WorldWide Electric team also provides advisory services to help distributors select the best product for their customers. It strives to help them keep production up to par by recommending products with minimum brand-specific-part dependence. After all, equipment unavailability and delay in sourcing can disrupt entire plant operations. This approach ensures clients retain their position in the competitive landscape, illustrating WorldWide Electric’s commitment to customer-centricity. The combination of an extensive product portfolio, a robust distributor network, and the ability to supplement all necessary intelligence about the equipment purchased gives additional value to clients partnering with WorldWide Electric.

Its unique value proposition has attracted AEA Investors, a private equity firm, who will invest in it to further drive growth. The coming months will witness WorldWide Electric expanding its workforce to meet the growing demand for a reliable distribution network that provides equipment while resolving technical hurdles.
