OUR STORY

1958
In the spring of 1958, Ernie Lester founded Lester Sales Company in Indianapolis, Indiana. Ernie’s vision was to build an agency that offered a premier level of representation for the top electrical manufacturers. This became a reality due to his tireless commitment to locate, recruit and hire the best of the best.  

TODAY 
Lester Sales is led by John Scott. John has over thirty years of experience in electrical distribution and holds a Master’s Degree in Industrial Distribution from Texas A&M University. Under his leadership, the company has continued Ernie’s legacy by building the future on a foundation of strong relationships with employees,  manufacturers and customers.
