| Description: |
The Almo Corporation, like many successful American businesses, traces its beginnings to the post World War II days of 1946 when Albert Margolis and Morris Green founded a wholesale distribution firm in Center City Philadelphia at a site now occupied by the National Constitution Center.
Almo originally wholesaled replacement parts for radios and later televisions to the dealer service trade through a number of branches in the Middle Atlantic States. In the mid fifties the company expanded into the OEM supply business adding several industrial electronics parts lines distributed to both domestic and international customers. Almo entered the Consumer Products business in the mid sixties distributing electronics items to retail appliance and electronics dealers throughout the Greater Philadelphia area.
In 1968 Almo was acquired by Sterling Electronics a public company headquartered in Houston, Texas. The company continued to operate as Almo Electronics Corporation, the largest subsidiary of Sterling, moving its operations in 1969 to a new facility which served as company headquarters for over thirty years. In the fall of 1970 management re-acquired Almo Electronics from Sterling and continues to operate as a privately owned business. |
