Graybar Electric Supply - Closed

For years, Graybar has supported Joplin, Webb City, Carthage, Neosho, Carl Junction and the counties of Newton and Jasper customers with sales professionals, daily deliveries and other important services from our branch and regional warehouse in Springfield. Graybar Joplin is a counter with will call pickup and stocked inventory in an on-site warehouse.

Founded in 1869, Graybar procures, warehouses and delivers tens of thousands of electrical supplies, communications and data products, components and related services to its customers. As one of the largest employee-owned companies in North America, we have the stability and effectiveness of a large corporation combined with the integrity and small-scale personal touch of a local business.

Rising electricity costs and environmental concerns have made energy strategies a chief concern among commercial operators and our energy solutions certainly fit the bill. Over 30 percent of energy used in a commercial building today is wasted. We can help you to monitor, report on, control and ultimately reduce your energy costs by a wide margin. Graybar can plan energy saving systems that are easy to use and maintain. Integrating Graybar Power Smart solutions will also help support your long term sustainability goals, such as a government mandated reduction in general energy usage by 20 percent by the year 2020.

Retrofitting all of your existing buildings is highly recommended and can decrease your energy consumption by as much as 67 percent. An example of a retrofit would be replacing old lighting fixtures with newer, more efficient counterparts. Many electrical supplies will install directly into the existing housings, eliminating the need for time-consuming re-wiring and ceiling repair. These types of retrofits can pay for themselves in as little as two years and often yield a return on investment of more than 40 percent.

By coupling technologies like LED bulbs and intelligent control systems, your business could see energy savings in excess of 90 percent. Using area and occupant based sensors that detect motion and sound, lighting can be turned off automatically when not in use. Dimmer switches are incredibly useful when full lighting may not be needed, such as in conference rooms.

Graybar Joplin is a prime example of what makes Graybar a leading commercial lighting supplier.
