Our StoryPowering the South Coast since 1987
M Electrical Wholesalers has spent more than three decades putting the right electrical products on the shelf for the homes, contractors and industry of KwaZulu-Natal. Independent, knowledgeable and proudly local.
A trusted name in electrical supply
M Electrical Wholesalers opened its doors in 1987 with a simple idea: give the South Coast a local, independent supplier that keeps quality electrical products in stock and prices them fairly.
More than three decades on, that idea still drives us. We have grown from a single branch into a network of six across KwaZulu-Natal, the Eastern Cape and Cape Town, while keeping the personal service and product knowledge that customers came to us for in the first place.
From a homeowner buying a single fitting to a contractor pricing a full site, we stock the cable, switchgear, lighting, solar and security that get the job done, backed by people who know the trade.
More than 35 years in the making
From one counter in Port Shepstone to a network across the province, built one satisfied customer at a time.
Where it began
M Electrical opens in Port Shepstone as an independent electrical wholesaler for the South Coast.
The network grows
New branches follow demand along the coast and inland, putting stock closer to more customers.
Solar & security added
As the coast's needs changed, we brought in solar power and security so customers could buy it all in one place.
Six branches strong
Port Shepstone, Margate, Kokstad, Matatiele, Mthatha and Cape Town, still independent, still local at heart.
