In 1958, Gerald “Snake”
Acker began the foundations of Acker Electric Company with only
himself and a truck. After an honorable discharge from the Navy, he
returned home and began wiring houses around the Anniston area. With
much energy and effort, he began to grow the company from a small,
residential contractor into a commercial and industrial contractor
equipped to take on large, challenging projects offering a wide
array of electrical services.
After a few name changes
and a switch from a union shop to a merit shop in 1977, Acker
Electric Company has never looked back and continued to grow as a
full-service electrical contractor. Though Gerald passed the company
over to two of his sons, Aaron and Mark, the commitment to maintain
the standards of integrity he established has remained the same.
There have been some
name changes and a switch from union to merit based shop over the
years, but Acker Electric still holds true to the principles
instilled by Gerald Acker more than 50 years ago. This has helped us
develop a reputation for having an Attitude of service, Excellence
in quality, and a Commitment to safety.
As we move forward in
today’s ever demanding market, Acker Electric stands equipped to
take on the challenges of an ever changing industry.
