Charlie Lyons was working as a wire twister in 1926 and after many years of service desired to get out of the electrical contracting business. This lead to the establishment in 1947 of Lyons Electrical Supply Company, a wholesaler of electrical supplies located at 800 North Main Street in Dayton, Ohio.

In 1963 Charlie's son, Al, took over the operation of the family business and moved Lyons Electrical Supply to 915 Webster Street in Old North Dayton, it's current location. The Lyons' family decided to expand their business in 1970 and built a lighting showroom adjacent to the 915 Webster Street location to serve theneeds of the home builders in the Dayton Area.

During the late 1970's Lyons Electrical Supply expanded to the suburbs and opened two Lighting Showrooms, one at the corner of Far Hills Avenue and Stroop Road, and a second location at 5814 North Main Street. 1996 brought the closure of both suburban Lighting Showrooms, bringing the Lighting Showroom back to its original location at 915 Webster Street, where it has been since.

The business is now being run by the 3rd generation of the Lyons family. Our full service electrical wholesale house stocks a comprehensive list of electrical supplies for every need including both residential and commercial applications.

We encourage everyone to stop in to see what our Lighting Showroom has to offer. We have a large selection of lighting fixtures, floor lamps, table lamps and lamp shades. We also stock intercom systems and central vacuum systems.
