Hammond Power Solutions Celebrates 100 Years

Hammond Power Solutions Celebrates 100 Years

January 3, 2016

Since its inception in 1917, Hammond Power Solutions (HPS) has grown from a small family owned business in the short wave radio market to one of the world’s largest transformer and reactor manufacturers.

“This is undeniably a milestone to celebrate that a Canadian, family-managed company has survived and now dominates the North American dry-type transformer industry after 100 years,” says Bill Hammond, Chairman and CEO of HPS. “This speaks to the diversity and capabilities that we have built over the decades with regard to our products, channels, markets, geography, and our employees.”

To commemorate the occasion, HPS plans to celebrate globally by dedicating the year to honouring their employees, partners, and customers through promotions and special scheduled events. Find out more about Hammond: www.hammondpowersolutions.com/.
