Daltco Electric is Eastern Ontario’s largest independent electrical distributor, offering residential, commercial and industrial electrical solutions.
Since the mid 1800’s, the Dalton family has been operating businesses in Eastern Ontario. In that time, they have evolved from being a wholesale distributor of hardware products to the current entity, focused on electrical, automation, lighting and data communication market segments.
In 1887, W B Dalton started Dalton and Strange, a wholesale distributor of hardware products. The three-storey brick building sold shelf and heavy hardware, farm implements, tools, cutlery, brass , tin, granite, iron, and sporting goods, and often delivered product to independent hardware stores with horse and buggy.
In 1977, John Dalton started Daltco Electric, specializing in electrical supplies and automation products. In 1997, John’s son Peter joined the company and subsequently took over its management. Under Peter’s leadership Daltco Electric has grown to become a leader in products and service for the Ontario market, through its 3 locations in Ottawa, Brockville and Kingston.
