What CC Electro does
CC Electro, legally C C Electro Sales, Inc., is an electronic manufacturers' representative firm founded in 1981 by Carol Cohen and headquartered at 715 N. Senate Ave, Indianapolis, Indiana. The company provides outsourced technical sales and marketing services to a portfolio of over 40 electronic component manufacturers, calling on OEM customers across six Midwest states (Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, Western Pennsylvania, and Kentucky) from offices in Indianapolis, Plymouth MI, Grand Rapids MI, and Cleveland OH. The firm is privately held, founder/family-controlled, and operates with approximately 11 staff combining outside field sales, inside sales/CRM management, and distribution channel oversight.
The company does not manufacture products. Instead, it earns commissions by acting as the authorized sales channel for principal manufacturers across nine product categories: power (Delta Power, Kendeil, Mitsubishi Power ICs, Delta Products), HMI/display (Tianma, Hallmark, Amulet), lighting, circuit protection (E-T-A, NanoFlowX), sensors (Uneo, ScioSense, Huba Control, Semitec), cooling (Delta fans, Timtronics), timing (Epson), connectors (Switchcraft Conxall, Electroswitch, Oslo/CW Industries, Stocko, Conta-Clip, DDK, Zierick, Firecomms), and material handling (Langs Pallets & Crates). Notable represented lines are IATF 16949-certified for automotive, and the firm carries emerging-technology categories such as Silicon Carbide power semiconductors, nanocoatings, and industrial NAND flash.
CC Electro monetizes exclusively via manufacturer representative commissions on sales booked through its field-sales efforts and managed distributor relationships. Its go-to-market is regional enterprise field sales targeted at OEM design and procurement teams, supported by an inside sales/CRM function and a recently formalized Director of Distribution role. Marketing channels are limited to LinkedIn, Twitter, and industry-association leadership (ERA, ECIA, EDS board). No revenue figures, funding rounds, or external ownership are disclosed; the firm operates as a stable, relationship-driven channel intermediary rather than a technology or growth-investment vehicle.
