Founded in 1911

Krauth Electric Company began its journey in the historic Hillerich & Bradsby building on First Street, located in Louisville’s market district. In 1957, the company was acquired by the late J. Richard Nalley, who led as President until 1988. Today, the business is led by his son, Richard Nalley Jr., serving as President, alongside his own son, Thomas Nalley, who holds the role of COO.

Our company is guided by six core values that drive our success:
