A & B Electric Company, Inc.

Your Complete Electrical Contractor

A&B Electric had its humble beginnings in Meridian, MS, amidst an economic stagflation in much of the Western world. An oil crisis, increased competition, forced restructures, crashed stock markets; it just kept coming. Confronting economic and financial challenges is a part of doing business. “Our business began with family. Our business began in humility. Our business began in faith. It began in survival. It began by design. A & B Electric Co. Inc. was formed in 1974 with Jimmy Alexander as a young electrician, and his wife Ann Alexander at his side, accounting for their every move,” states Gina Alexander Sharman, Vice President. 

A&B Electric Company, Inc. today, is an industrial electrical contractor with an unimaginable footprint. They manage a diversified portfolio of clients beyond the Southeastern United States in industries of textile, petrochemical, pulp and paper manufacturing, utilities, power generation, renewable energy, poultry and beef processing, wood processing and material handling, automotive and steel manufacturing. The commercial industry includes hospital and health care construction, municipal buildings, correctional facilities, government and military construction, multi-purpose facilities, distribution warehouses, educational facilities, data and computer centers, gaming, hospitality and hotel construction. The economic opportunity produced and created by this business, its employees, families, communities and clients is unmeasurable.  A&B performs quality work at a competitive price. They are defined by their people, their abilities, and their constant combined goals.

They are helping build families, educate employees, offer job opportunities and something greater than individual members of a company. Their unified vision is preparing the next generations.

“Although much of our business volume is outside of Meridian on remote jobsites, this exposure allows us to continue to help spread the word about Meridian and proudly call it our Corporate Home. A&B Electric is proud to support all the local arts, volunteer and educational arenas, and to be involved in all that is great about this city we call home,” says Randy Sharman, President.  “We know our industry. We try to stay ahead of the unanticipated. Technologies and communications are key components of our implementation process. Our business strategy, recruitment, retainment, marketing and sales are evidence of our growing, successful company.”
