Gescan's story began in 1952 as the Wholesale Department of Canadian General Electric Co., serving customers from coast to coast before evolving into the full-line electrical distributor we know today. More than 70 years later, we're still proud of our Canadian roots and grateful to the customers, communities and electrical professionals who have been part of our journey. Happy Canada Day from all of us at Gescan! 🍁
