Industry News: Customer Spotlight on Hunzicker

Congratulations to Hunzicker Brothers and Jack Henderson! Jack, the company’s executive vice president, was recently appointed the Chairman of the National Association of Electrical Distributors (NAED). This is a big job and a great honor; and, he was featured in a cover story for the May issue of TED Magazine. Having been with the company for 40 years, Jack’s story is a testament to the strong history and leadership behind Hunzicker.

Hunzicker became a customer of Zerion last year when we provided project management and training for their conversion to Eclipse.  Since then, we have also provided purchasing consultations. We’re proud to be associated with a company led by such an established figure in the electrical industry!

In related industry news, Modern Distribution Management (MDM) announced its top 25 electrical distributors list. Zerion customers (past and present) who made the list include number 1 Sonepar, as well as HD Supply, Independent Electric, Border States and North Coast. Congrats to all!
