Leadership
“We live out our values through our actions … it’s just that simple.”
Allan Cook, President & CEO
Allan started a summer job with an electrical contracting company that his brother-in-law worked at when he was just 15 years old. Despite only earning $1.90/hour, he knew that being an electrician was the key to his future. He also knew that one day his ambition to succeed would result in having his own company—thus was born what would become Alco Electric.
In February of 1995, Allan was licensed and working full-time as an electrical contractor. He proceeded to launch Alco Construction & Electrical Services in 2004, once obtaining his General B Contractor License to expand the company’s capabilities.
Along the way, Allan learned one key business truth: “Do what you say you’ll do while always keeping your integrity intact, and you’ll never lose a client.
