In 1958, Joe T. Robison founded Mid-State Electric Supply Company out of the trunk of his car. Working in his father's Hardware store while growing up, he learned the basic principals of building and operating a successful business: Honesty, Integrity, Product Knowledge and Quality Service. Instilling these principles into his company's culture, he expanded his business into a group of world-class, project-oriented companies serving the electric utility, electrical contractor and forest industries. Crest Industries, LLC is the holding company for these subsidiaries and is a private, closely held, family owned, limited liability company. Crest Industries and its subsidiaries have strong financial resources, experienced management teams and second generation succession in place for continued growth and success.
