growth
and expansion
Over half a century ago in 1963, General Electric (USA) established its fledgling Irish manufacturing operation in Shannon - the EI or ‘Emerald Isle’ Company as it was originally known.
25 years later, in 1988 following a Management Buy Out of GE’s Irish interests in Shannon, led by MD Michael “Mick” Guinee and other members of his team, Ei Electronics as we know it today was born.
The guiding principles of the Company at its foundation were Quality, Service and Innovation. Infused by our original founders, these values have endured throughout the Company’s long history and remain as strong as ever today.
The founders have remained with the business to
the present time, maintaining leading roles within the Organisation - a testament to their on-going commitment to the Company, its customers and its employees.
Over three decades of growth we have expanded our global footprint, successfully building international markets from the ground up, and evolving into a world leader in our sector.
Organic growth, funded from internal resources has underpinned our strategy, enabling an innovation-led approach to developing our business and markets.
