Celebrating 75 Years of Stromquist
1951–2026
In 1951, Bengt Stromquist founded Stromquist & Company on a simple belief: help customers find the right solution, stand behind it, and always do business the right way. Seventy-five years later, that philosophy still defines who we are.
What began as one man's commitment to service, integrity, and technical expertise has grown into a trusted partner for contractors, engineers, system integrators, facility managers, and building owners throughout the Southeast. Along the way, leadership transitioned from founder to the second generation as David and Eric Stromquist carried the company forward while remaining true to the values that built it.
Today, our current leadership team, proudly continues that legacy while investing in the people, technology, partnerships, and resources that will shape the next generation of our business. Although our industry has transformed—from pneumatic controls to intelligent buildings, cloud platforms, BACnet networks, and advanced building automation—our purpose has remained remarkably consistent: help our customers succeed.
Built on Relationships
For 75 years, our greatest achievement hasn't been measured by products sold or years in business—it's been the relationships we've built. Many of our customers and supplier partners have worked alongside Stromquist for decades, and generations of employees have helped create a culture centered on knowledge, service, and trust.
Whether we're helping identify a replacement actuator, supporting a complex BAS upgrade, troubleshooting a combustion application, or providing technical training, our goal remains the same as it was in 1951: make it easier for our customers to do their jobs successfully.
Our Commitment
- Be easy to do business with.
- Build lasting partnerships.
- Lead with integrity.
- Deliver exceptional results.
- Create rewarding careers for our employees.
- Demonstrate the value a knowledgeable distributor brings to our industry.
Looking Ahead
Celebrating 75 years isn't just about honoring our past—it's about preparing for the future. As building technologies continue to evolve, Stromquist remains committed to helping customers navigate change with confidence through industry-leading products, technical expertise, training, and responsive support.
To every customer, supplier partner, and employee who has been part of our journey, thank you. Your trust has made this milestone possible.
We are proud of where we've been, grateful for the relationships we've built, and excited for what's next.
Here's to the next 75 years.
