Peak Electric, Inc , A Supplier to Public and Private
Projects
Milton McIntyre founded
Peak Electricity Inc. in 2000 and ventured into the world of
entrepreneurship after a number of years of working as an
electrician for others. Peak supplies electrical components,
particularly LED lighting, to contractors, businesses and
individuals.
Initially McIntyre, a
Steubenville native who arrived in Toledo to become a
journeyman with the IBEW (International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers) training program, had planned for Peak
to be a subcontractor as an installer of electrical
projects. But, as he discovered, as an installer, the
company could only take on a limited amount of work because
of a lack of capacity. As a supplier, however, Peak is
virtually unlimited in its ability to work on large
projects.

In recent years, Peak has
worked on ODOT (Ohio Department of Transportation) projects,
along with Toledo Public Schools and Toledo Lucas County
Port Authority projects, for example, in the public realm.
Private companies such as Mercy Health, Owens Corning, the
Andersons and Dana have also utilized Peak’s resources.
As for the future,
McIntyre plans to obtain for Peak, federal 8A certification
that will enable the company to sell directly to the federal
government. He sees all sorts of opportunities for growth to
both public and private entities.
