Business Information
History/background
Radwell Roots: Brian Radwell grew up in the small town of Medford, New Jersey. As a freshman and sophomore, Brian enjoyed playing football for his local high school. In 1982, times got tough and money was tight. Without a sure path to college through an athletic scholarship, Brian decided against his coach's advice, to quit football and start working. 'At 15 years old I became the shipper at Speck Industrial Controls. We were a small industrial control distributor employing five people in Mount Laurel, New Jersey. My father Jerry owned a small percentage of Speck and trained me on the ways of industrial manufacturing and the importance of electrical and electronic controls.'
Brian continued high school and opted for early-out programs in order to hasten his opportunity to train and work in the expanding automation industry. Speck was struggling . Brian decided to remain the shipper and take a second job as a gas attendant in nearby Marlton.

In 2005, Speck Industrial Controls became Radwell International, Inc. and moved into a new 70,000 square foot facility with a 15,000 square foot state-of-the-art repair center in Lumberton, New Jersey. Radwell's new facility also contains 35,000 square feet of inventory space including the massive two-story 'Area 51' stock system. In 2008, Radwell's net sales reached $37 million. In May of 2009, Radwell added more warehouse space making the Lumberton headquarters 110,000 square feet.
As 2010 unfolds, history will mark the year as a major milestone for Radwell International. The company has decided to expand into the European markets by establishing a repair and distribution center in the United Kingdom. The intent is to bring the Radwell-PLCCenter brand to the overseas marketplace.
Charity Work
Radwell sees itself as an important part of the local and global community through its ongoing efforts to 'give back'. As Brian Radwell explains: 'I feel it is the responsibility of every successful business to support the community and to help others.' Radwell upholds that responsibility every single day. In the past few years alone Radwell has donated over $250,000 to numerous local and national causes and community efforts. If Radwell can help in any way, it usually does -- from requests to support employee-initiated efforts such as various charitable bike-a-thons, walk-a-thons, and sports team sponsorships, to the many research and educational foundations, to providing financial assistance to the various disaster relief efforts. Recently the company matched employee initiated donations for Haitian disaster relief more than five-fold which resulted in a total company donation of $50,000 to the American Red Cross.
