Logistics
Gresco has implemented sophisticated and robust technologies to manage inventory at our own facilities, which span a total of approximately 50 acres of warehouse and outdoor space.
We leverage this experience and strong relationships with our industry partners to offer inventory management and logistical support for our customers’ warehouses.
Whether it is for one type of product or an entire warehouse inventory, we can work with you to implement a system that reduces your overhead while ensuring that you have access to your material when you need it.
Material kitting streamlines the ordering process and minimizes the number of product SKUs you have to track. Gresco’s extensive inventory enables us to kit material quickly and efficiently for orders both large and small.
Your material will arrive on the job site exactly when you need it, never too late or too early. When needed, Gresco’s representatives will work with your project schedule to determine the optimal delivery windows and cadence.
Our team of professionals strives to provide one-touch material handling, thereby maximizing efficiency, minimizing the chances of material damage and streamlining the entire delivery process.
Today, Gresco’s fleet comprises a number of trucks, tractors, trailers and cranes. Whatever your needs, we have the right equipment to deliver even the heaviest of loads, including substation transformers, three-phase transformers, heavy reels of wire, concrete vaults and more!
It is rare to find drivers as experienced and empowered as the ones you’ll find behind the wheels of Gresco’s trucks. Our team of certified drivers has a combined 60+ years of over-the-road experience and are always ready to go the extra mile to ensure you are satisfied with your delivery.

Our strategically located warehouses and private fleet of trucks enable Gresco to quickly respond to emergency situations with same-day and next-day deliveries. We have a large stock of electric utility supply distributed throughout our warehouses in southeast US, as well as access to additional stock in our distribution network. You can count on us to deliver substation transformers, three-phase transformers, heavy reels of wire, concrete vaults and more, all directly to your job site.
As part of our emergency response plan, Gresco keeps an even larger inventory during storm season. Because our philosophy is not to rely on the manufacturer for our customers’ stocking needs, we can provide you with a 3-month average usage stock level for any materials you choose to store in our warehouse. To better serve all our customers, we recently expanded our warehouse facilities in Florida, Georgia and Alabama.
Gresco’s warehouses are strategically located throughout the southeast US, minimizing the time it takes to deliver critical supplies in time of need. We have almost 1 million square feet of combined warehouse and yard storage in:
- Wildwood, FL
- Forsyth, GA
- Dothan & Huntsville, AL
- Port Allen, LA
- Mount Olive, MS
- Nashville, TN
We stock a variety of material for storm restoration efforts, all of which are readily available for Gresco customers.
- Thousands of single-phase pole and pad-mounted transformers
- Hundreds of three-phase transformers, in sizes of up to 2,500 kVA
- Master reels to coils of conductor, fiber optic cable, and other cables
- Tools and materials necessary to build an electric distribution system
We maintain a reliable stock of cable and wire that our customers may need for electric utility, telecom and lighting projects. Our inventory includes master reels to coils of conductor, fiber optic cable, connectors, and more!
Reduce waste and save money with our cable and wire cutting services tailored to your requirement. Our high-precision equipment cuts and reels custom lengths of conductor, including medium-voltage cable, bare overhead, and low-voltage conductor.
If you have a damaged reel, we can re-spool conductor onto a new reel to your specifications, all while saving you money and time. We will pick up the conductor at your facility, transport it to our reeling operation, repackage your materials and return it to your yard or any other location.
To streamline your installation. we can load multiple conductors onto a single reel to give you the ability of making a single pull for a complete section of line.
We are available year-round to provide training seminars at a time convenient to you, at your preferred location. We have previously held seminars at Gresco’s offices, warehouses, our customers’ facilities, and even in the field. No matter what location you choose, we can work with you to arrange a seminar that meets your needs.
Our long-standing industry partnerships enable us to provide you with additional support. We often invite manufacturer representatives to demo equipment, showcase product features and answer questions. They are also able to offer training that earns CEUs. When needed, Gresco can sponsor factory tours and site visits to resolve any technical issues you may face.
Our team consists of experts in each product market that we serve, including lighting, telecom, UAS, solar, EV charging, and others. Our Technical Service Representatives have diverse experience in the engineering, technical, and management areas of the electric utility industry. We strive to keep up with current technology and regulations and pass on this knowledge to our customers.
Gresco’s tool and line service personnel have 15+ years of experience and knowledge in the field as linemen and sales representatives and are uniquely positioned to understand what you need to work efficiently and safely.
When searching for a utility tool and safety equipment provider, it is tempting to simply look at price and not consider the cost. At Gresco, providing customers cost effective solutions is only one of the services that we provide. Gresco tool specialists understand the meaning of added value. Every day, we leverage experience, relationships with vendors, and product knowledge to create value. Simply put, Gresco delivers more than price.
If you have a tool that’s malfunctioning or broken, we are your safety net. A Gresco representative will pick up your tool and coordinate directly with the manufacturer to ensure correct repairs. Once repairs are complete, we will deliver the tool back to you in a timely manner.
