A Bit of History: The Starting Days of Ko-Hen Electronics Supply

A Family Business Built on Technical Trust

Ko-Hen Electronics Supply Ltd. was founded on July 2, 1977, by Joe Koziol and Morley Hennig with the goal of supplying electronic parts and components to Central Alberta’s commercial and industrial electronics industry. The company opened its doors in the Truck Town Industrial Building at 76 Street and 49 Avenue in Red Deer, Alberta, originally operating within 1,408 square feet. In its early years, Ko-Hen focused on communications equipment, television repair components, and retail electronic parts.

In October 1995, when Morley and his wife relocated to Nova Scotia, Joe and his wife Janice acquired Morley’s share of the company. Joe continued to operate Ko-Hen independently until January 1998, when his son, Brent Koziol, joined the business. As customer needs evolved, Ko-Hen expanded both its inventory and footprint, leasing adjoining space in Truck Town in 2002 to grow operations to 3,840 square feet.

When Joe retired, leadership transitioned to Brent, who, along with his wife Nonette, now owns and operates Ko-Hen Electronics as a family business.

Growth, Expansion, and Today’s Focus

In March 2008, Ko-Hen relocated to its current facility at 6022–67A Street in Red Deer, and during 2015–2016 expanded its warehouse capacity by an additional 5,000 square feet, bringing the total facility size to over 12,000 square feet.

While Ko-Hen continues to carry select products similar to those offered in its earliest days, the company has grown to focus primarily on:

industrial automation and controls,
oil and gas applications,
industrial electronics,
computer and networking infrastructure,
and hard-to-source electrical and automation components.

Ko-Hen continues to expand its inventory and technical capabilities to support a broad customer base throughout Central Alberta, Western Canada, and beyond, while maintaining the personal service and technical depth that have defined the company since its founding.
