Our expert team is celebrated for impeccable customer service and a track record of proven success. For 65+ years, Paige has been shaped by its employees who continue to grow the legacy.

Our story over the last 65+ Years

2022

A Major Milestone - Acquisition by GCG In 2022, Paige became part of the Genuine Cable Group (GCG) family. Recognizing the increasing complexity of customer needs and the narrowing of their options, GCG was founded to provide a fresh choice, blending unparalleled expertise with unmatched responsiveness and a forward-thinking drive. We specialize in the latest wire, cable, and connectivity products, as well as tailored solutions for automated factories, serving diverse industries such as Communications, OEM, Data Centers, and Renewable Energy. GCG is built to provide to custom solutions of a smaller provider through our global distribution network to support in our clients' quest for efficiency and growth.

2020

Resilience and Growth Amidst Challenges The global pandemic presented unprecedented challenges, but our team demonstrated remarkable resilience. We more than doubled our manufacturing footprint, ensuring that we could meet the increased demand for our products even as supply chains were strained. Our ability to adapt and innovate allowed us to support our customers with the high-quality solutions they needed during these critical times.

2019

Evolution of Connection. In early 2019, Paige launched Paige Renewable Energy, a bold step into the sustainable energy sector. This new division was established to address the growing demand for renewable energy solutions and quickly become the largest and fastest growing division of Paige. Paige Renewable Energy combines our industry expertise with a commitment to innovation and sustainability, offering cutting-edge products that support solar, wind, and other renewable energy projects. As we pioneer in renewable technologies, Paige continues to lead by connecting our customers to cleaner, more efficient energy solutions for a sustainable future.

2018

Growth through innovation. Lead by the new management team and focused on growth, Paige expands its manufacturing footprint by opening a 33,000 square foot factory in Silao, Mexico. With the new factory came new capabilities and new employees. After 20 employees in Silao joining Paige, our employee family passed 200.

2016

Passing the baton. With our feet proudly rooted in our history and an eye on the future, the Paige Board of Directors tapped Jim Coleman to join Paige as its new CEO. The Coleman family has enjoyed a long and successful history in the wire business going back four generations and having founded major companies, including Coleman Cable and Genesis Cable Systems.

2008

The golden year. In 2008, Paige celebrated its 50th anniversary. The company had come a long way since 1958, from three stockholders, six employees, one office, a 257sq. ft. warehouse, capitalization of $7,500, a thousand dollars worth of inventory, one major supplier, one customer, and no computers. Now, they had over 160 people in 13 all-over-the-place locations, five warehouses, and multi-million dollar revenue.

1996

In 1996, for the first time in history Paige became a company that was 100% employee-owned. Paige expanded outwards from New Jersey, opening a new 36,000 square-foot warehouse near Columbus, Ohio.

1983

The road to success is paved with leadership. Before becoming 100% employee-owned, Paige was sold to Thackeray Corporation for $18 million. Thackeray was a highly successful New York investment group. They helped guide Paige during their decade of leadership.

1968

Growing up and going public. After ten years, the business was growing and so were its needs. Lou Grotta joined the team as a partner. Shortly thereafter, the team of four partners took the company public. Herb Levine helped lead Paige's new merger with Brennand Construction Company.

1958

It was meant to be. Neil Weiss, Herb Levine, and Jermone Stern (our founding partners) opened Paige for business in 1958. Order number one was booked on business day one. The initial corporate capitalization was only $7,500. By the end of the year, the office staff expanded 300%, and salesforce grew by 50%. Reynolds Electric & Engineering was our largest (and only) client. They were solely responsible for our cross-country sales.

Eliminating PVC from Products

Paige has moved to low-smoke, zero halogen (LSZH) construction of cable to replace plastic compound PVC, typically used for the production of wire and cable. This eliminates a ton of chlorine that enters into the environment during production.
