Los Angeles County and Orange County are home to one of the largest concentrations of food processing and manufacturing facilities in the western United States. The City of Industry, Vernon, Commerce, Anaheim, and Fullerton corridors host hundreds of food manufacturers — from large national brands to specialty co-packers — running production lines around the clock. These facilities have electrical demands that go far beyond commercial building wiring: sanitary conduit systems, washdown-rated equipment, VFDs on every production motor, refrigeration controls, and compliance with USDA and FDA electrical requirements for food-contact environments.

Direct Source Industrial Solutions provides licensed industrial electrical services to food processors, beverage manufacturers, cold storage operators, co-packers, and produce distributors throughout Los Angeles County, Orange County, and the Inland Empire. We understand sanitary wiring, we know refrigeration electrical, and we troubleshoot VFDs and production line controls without shutting down your entire facility to do it. Emergency calls welcome — food production downtime is expensive and we respond fast. Call (562) 396-9924 for same-day availability.
