carrying forward the encore wire experience

As the Prysmian and Encore Wire teams join forces, Encore Wire carries forward the best elements that have served our customers since 1989.  It's the heart and culture of excellence, a.k.a. the Encore Wire Experience that provides ease of access and communication and makes Encore Wire "best-in-class".  We recently asked team members and affiliates what they believe these top traits include:

what does the heart of encore wire mean to you?

Chris Atterbery, Sales Account Manager, Encore Wire

"When we say we're going to do something, we do it; And we do it with excellence.  Our word sticks, and it gives confidence that we're a solid, dependable team who goes above the expectation."

 

Nina Gayoso, Sales Representative, Encore Wire / Employee for 30+ years 

"The people {Encore Wire employees} along with customers and reps are like a big family.  We all work together and take care of one another.  I can reach out to the plant managers if I need help, and our customers can reach live people when they call our sales team.  Our phones don't go to voicemail, and I think it's just the personal touch that is different about us."

 

Paulina Leddy, Plant 1 Assistant Manager, Encore Wire

"My favorite thing about working at Encore Wire are the sheer possibilities that we can achieve here.  I'm also often inspired by the {plant} operators.  Their dedication to the job and self-motivation is a testament to our culture.  Additionally, we develop bonds and team camaraderie – we laugh, make jokes, and get stuff done.  Ultimately, the team's success is our success."

 

Shelly Wells, VP Operations, Nelson & Associates / Manufacturer's Representative

"The people {of Encore Wire} feel like family.  They put so much thought into everything that they do." 

 

Charles Loeb, President/Owner, Loeb Electric / Encore Wire customer 35+ years

"Every time I visit the campus, it's amazing to me how orderly and clean it is, and how much structure there is in the organization, which reflects in the end-product and in {Encore Wire's} business model.  It carries through from the forklift drivers to the gentleman giving the tour, to the machine operators.  The code of ethics, morals and commitment is wonderful, and the values permeate throughout the whole organization."

 

Brandon Salinas, Plant 1 Manager, Encore Wire

"While leading a plant, you're always part of a team environment.  It takes everyone involved and working together to help produce wire at a high speed.  We have six plants on campus, and we all have a competitive nature.  We work together and help each other out, but we all strive to outperform and be the best plant on campus."

 

Kelly Eldringhoff, VP of Sales & Marketing, Meridian Electrical Sales / Manufacturer's Representative

"Encore Wire is a powerhouse of culture and service.  I'm not aware of another company who knows their customers better.  It's about the experience and exposure that makes the company so great, and businesses who partner with Encore Wire become better as a result." 

 

Russell Garrett, Sales Representative, Encore Wire

"Our team works relentlessly to provide a quality experience in all that we do - from manufacturing premier products with American-made raw materials to delivering the fastest, complete shipments with exceptional customer service."

 

aligning with prysmian

As our new story continues to unfold, the Prysmian / Encore Wire teams proudly align resources to offer cutting-edge solutions for addressing current challenges in the industry. 

Kevin Heffernan, VP of Sales and Marketing, Encore Wire 

"We share the same vision for innovation and customer satisfaction, and together, we will be able to deliver more value to electrical contractors than ever before."

An initial integration step has been the addition of Prysmian's Carol® Electronics / Communications cable, now available from the Encore Wire, Texas campus.  When bundling Carol® products to an order, our partners can rely on the same quick shipping and service levels they're accustomed to receiving from Encore Wire. 

We look forward to serving you with these same values and principles that is the heart of Encore Wire, now with our new Prysmian family.  Reach out to your local Manufacturer Representative for the comprehensive, blended product line and to learn more.
