Starting the business in 1929 at 275 Congress Street in downtown Boston, Arthur J. Hurley, Sr. was originally a distributor for Collyer Insulated Wire of Lincoln, RI, evolving into a manufacturers representative. However, it was a representative with a difference, mainly warehouse stock, which has long set the Hurley Company apart from competitors. Having stock on hand in Boston and being ready to serve its loyal customers at a moments notice has made the Hurley name a force to be reckoned with in the highly competitive world of wire and cable.
The early days of the company were lean, hard times, but Arthur J. Hurley, Sr. built up the company, working hand in hand with local electric power companies as they expanded power distribution throughout the 1930's. Arthur was known as one of the most knowledgeable and hardest working men in his field by colleagues and competitors alike. As the industry grew and opportunities presented themselves, the Hurley Company responded to the challenges with sales and service. Along the way, new customers were nurtured and credit was extended to help the industry grow and thrive. The long-term relationships that started when the industry was young have since grown and changed with the times. The guiding principles have served the firm well.
