Burt Schraga Named Incoming Chair-Elect of NAED Board of Directors
(ST. LOUIS, MO)… Burt Schraga, a 34-year veteran of the industry, is the new
chair-elect of the National Association of Electrical Distributors (NAED) Board of
Directors. In this position, Schraga, CEO of the Santa Clara, Calif. based Bell
Electrical Supply, will prepare to lead the NAED board during 2009-2010.
“I am so glad to be able to give back to this industry that has been so good to me
and my company,” said Schraga. “I know that we can accomplish great things as
an industry because of the great people we have on board. In this industry and in
my company, it is all about the people. With the right team, you can’t help but win.
I am so proud of our Bell Electrical team, and especially our leadership team.
Because of them, I am able to take on the chairman’s role for NAED.”
Schraga started in the industry by turning a college job into a lifetime career.
He has dedicated the last three-plus decades to the same company, which has
provided a wide range of electrical products to manufacturers, end users, and
contractors for over half a century. This month, Bell Electrical is merging with
Industrial Control Components to further expand its offerings.
Throughout his career, Schraga has taken on many leadership positions within
NAED. He served two terms on the association’s board of directors from 1985-1987
and 1994-1996, and was also Western Region Vice President. He has also chaired
both the NAED Strategic Focus and Executive Conference Committees.
His strong commitment to electrical distribution has also extended to other
organizations within the channel. Schraga is currently chairman of the Elite
Distributors Insurance Co. (EDIC) and is a member of the Affiliated Distributors
(A-D) U.S. Electrical Board. Under Schraga’s leadership, Bell Electrical was
presented with the A-D 2007-2008 Affiliate of the Year Award.
NAED is currently directed by Tammy Miller, CEO of Border States Electric Supply.
At the association’s first National Electrical Leadership Summit, May 17-21,
Richard (Dick) Waterman, senior advisor of International Electric Supply Corp.
(IESCO), will become NAED board chair for the 2008-2009 year.
NAED is the trade association for the $70+ billion electrical distribution industry.
Through networking, education, research, and benchmarking, NAED helps electrical
distributors increase profitability and improve the channel. NAED’s membership
represents approximately 4,200 locations internationally.
