FBA Fall Forum 2023: 100 Years with Fromm Electric

Managing a Multi-Generational Family Business:
Lessons Learned and Keys to Sustainability

Join us to hear from Michael Fromm, CEO and third-generation owner of Fromm Electric - where he started to where he is today, and how and when he decided to remove himself from the daily operations so the business could continue to thrive and grow.

Fromm has spent his entire professional career in wholesale distribution. After joining Fromm in 1991, he worked in sales, operations, accounting, and marketing to learn the electrical industry before being named President in 1997. In 2009, Fromm transitioned day-to-day management to a professional team with the aim of building long term sustainability while honoring the rich traditions and culture of a family business.

ABOUT MICHAEL FROMM

“Over the years, I have had the privilege of getting to know employees who worked with my grandfather and my father, but I have also had the good fortune of seeing an entire new generation of young people helping to keep our company at the vanguard of the electrical industry. I am energized by the ingenuity and passion of our teams and enjoy hearing from customers about their great experiences doing business with Fromm.”

Outside of work, Fromm enjoys running, bicycling, hiking, skiing, and playing and listening to music.
