Resale Business Sparks Growth in Retail

The pandemic has offered a strange silver lining for some businesses. The combination of a challenging economy and families reorganizing while quarantining at home has prompted a boon for resale shops.

Recently, Benson Electrical Contracting was called in to install a new 1200amp service as well as a separate 400amp fire pump service for the growing Goodwill store in Melrose Park.

 

Increasing power needs is something we see often at Benson Electrical Contracting. This is partly due since many older buildings were designed when demand for electricity was lower. They were typically built with 60 or 120 amps and a few circuits for the entire commercial building. Today, it is not enough to power the amount of electronics and computers in use today. Even for smaller businesses. The power drain can be noticeable.
