Our History

The Northern Breaker Group story begins with three independent companies, each building strong reputations in their respective markets:

Alberta Breaker & Supply Co. Ltd.

opened its doors in Calgary in 2001, quickly establishing itself as the city’s trusted source for electrical supplies. Under the leadership of Gordon Haynes, whose 56 years of industry experience included management roles at Westburne, Gescan, Nedco, and General Electric, Alberta Breaker built its reputation on deep inventory and technical expertise.

National Breaker & Supply Ltd.

established its Edmonton operations to serve Northern Alberta’s industrial sector, becoming the gateway supplier for oil sands projects and northern industrial developments. The Edmonton location strategically positioned itself as the staging point for some of Canada’s largest industrial projects.

CPM Electrical Sales

developed its Vancouver presence to serve the Lower Mainland’s unique market, from marine and port facilities to the region’s booming residential and commercial construction sectors. Recognizing the strength in unity, these three established companies joined forces to create the Northern Breaker Group. This strategic alliance allows each location to maintain its local identity and relationships while providing customers access to the combined inventory and expertise of the entire network. Today, Northern Breaker Group represents Canada’s fastest growing electrical supply network, with ambitious plans for continued expansion.
