Atlantic Industrial Group

What Atlantic Industrial Group does

Atlantic Industrial Group (operating as Atlantic Industrial) is a US specification-grade LED lighting manufacturer founded in 1985 and headquartered in Tampa, Florida. The company designs and builds a broad portfolio of LED fixtures including high bays, low bays, bollards, wall packs, canopy and garage lights, vaporproof and harsh-environment luminaires, decorative post tops, NSF 2 certified food processing lighting, and emergency/exit signs, alongside a smaller line of bathroom ventilation products. It operates five (referenced as six) manufacturing facilities across Florida, Tennessee, New York, California, Washington, and Delaware, with a vertically integrated production model spanning raw materials through engineering, design, and testing. Technology differentiators include thermal-managed LED circuitry, environmentally sealed optics, and a 98-3-1 Rapid Ship Program offering 98% fill rate, 3-day lead time, and 1-piece minimum order quantity.

The company is family-owned for 38+ years, debt-free, and is a subsidiary of QSSI (Quality Stainless Fitting). Its go-to-market is sales-led, relying on regional sales representatives and direct customer relationships to sell through electrical distributors and to contractors, specifiers, facility managers, and government buyers. Key certifications include Buy American Act (BAA) compliance for 208 products, NLB Trusted Warranty Program approval (as one of the first two companies certified), and NSF 2 ratings for food splash-zone lighting. The company serves six primary verticals: industrial and manufacturing, food processing, parking structures, government and public sector, commercial and municipal, and sports and recreation. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; transactions occur via project quotes through distributors and specification channels rather than public list pricing.

Revenue, headcount growth, and financial performance are not disclosed in available sources. The firmographic employee count (1-10) appears inconsistent with five manufacturing facilities and a multi-vertical product catalog, suggesting either an undercount or a heavy reliance on contract manufacturing and outsourced sales rep labor. Atlantic Industrial competes in a mature, fragmented US lighting market where specification-grade domestic manufacturing and regulatory certifications (BAA, NSF) serve as primary differentiators against import-dominated competitors.
