Founded in 1919 as a modest motor repair shop in Memphis, Shelby Electric quickly outgrew its original location on Union Avenue. In response to growing demand, the company expanded by adding a Wiring Department and relocated to 390 South Main Street in downtown Memphis. By 1930, Shelby Electric moved to its current facility at 112 East E.H. Crump Blvd.
As one of the oldest and most reliable contractors in the Southeast, Shelby Electric has continually expanded its capabilities. Today, our services include, but are not limited to, variable frequency drives, roadway and plant lighting and maintenance, overhead power lines, underground systems installation, traffic signal installations, high-voltage power systems, infrared screening, breaker testing, power quality studies, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), solar power system installation, and fiber optic cabling for data and telecommunications.
