What Q-ELEKTRIK a.s. does

Q-ELEKTRIK a.s. is a privately held Czech wholesale distributor and electrical-services company founded in 1990 by Karel Ježek, headquartered in Slezská Ostrava. It operates five core business lines: (1) wholesale distribution of air conditioning units under the LG, TCL, and Haier brands, where it is the largest LG distributor in the Czech Republic and Slovakia with approximately 40% market share; (2) wholesale of electrical installation materials, focused on low-voltage switching and protection elements; (3) sale of non-ferrous metals (copper and aluminium) from a 300–400 tonne warehouse stock with 24-hour delivery; (4) electrical installation, reconstruction, and servicing of equipment and switchgear up to 110 kV for industrial and mining clients, including ATEX-certified work in explosive atmospheres; and (5) photovoltaic system design and installation with Wallbox EV chargers. The company employs more than 110 staff across five branches in Ostrava, Modřice, Prague-Hostivař, Brno, and Bytča (Slovakia), operating under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and FTZÚ ATEX certifications.

The business operates on a wholesale-distribution-plus-services model with multi-channel reach: a B2B portal (klimatizace.q-elektrik.cz) for installation firms, a public e-commerce storefront (elektro.q-elektrik.cz), inside sales, and field account management for industrial clients. Most revenue is generated through one-time wholesale transactions of electrical materials, air conditioning, and metals, with recurring service revenue from electrical installation projects and ongoing operational management of substations. Family ownership remains concentrated, with the founder serving as Chairman and family members holding statutory and executive positions.

Revenue is reported as just under CZK 1 billion (approximately USD 43–45 million) annually. The company serves three primary segments: (a) B2B installation and contracting firms that purchase products for downstream projects; (b) industrial and mining operators requiring high-voltage electrical installation and maintenance; and (c) end-user consumers via the e-commerce storefront. Go-to-market combines direct sales, e-commerce, brand-partnered technical training, and selective promotional campaigns targeted at installer channels.
