Active Electrical Supply is a certified Women’s Business Enterprise with Cook County and the City of Chicago, as well as with the State of Illinois Central Management Services.

Active Electrical Supply and Fox Lighting Galleries was opened in 1953 by Anton and Barbara Fox. Today, this family owned business is run primarily by Anton and Barbara’s grandchildren, Linda and Susan.  The WBE certification requires a very comprehensive verification process expanding upon the proverbial and legal theme of being woman/women owned.

“We’re all very excited about the WBE certification,” stated President Susan Swan.  “As the marketplace is ever changing, becoming WBE certified is going to certainly help with our capabilities and the growth of our customers.”
