M&M Electric was founded in 1973 by Marvin R. Foy and his uncle, Marvin O. Wells as an electrical contracting business in Gastonia, NC. 

Shortly after our inception, we began building controls for a variety of applications, which laid the ground for our current UL508A certified control panel shop. During the early 1980’s, our Engineering Team was on the forefront of PLC/PC technology, while transitioning control systems from primarily Relay Logic to PLC Controlled. To this day, MME continues to stay on the cutting edge of all major forms of PLC, HMI, VFD, Servo and data management. 

In 2015, MME added Lean Six Sigma and ISO 9001 to our list of accolades. MME added Thermography in 2019 which gave us the ability to not only perform thermal scans, but also provide onsite repairs with our highly trained technicians and electricians.

Originally based in textiles, MME now partners with many food and beverage, chemical, automotive, OEM manufacturing, water, lighting, material handling, conveying, and construction companies.

MME is blessed to offer our partners complete turnkey solutions with the ability to maintain these solutions. As our founder Marvin R. Foy continues to say, “Before anything else, we’re in the business of relationships.”

Marvin R. Foy retired as President in 2022 and named his son, long-time Vice President, Mark Foy as his successor. Our long history of commitment to continual improvement with innovation in the pursuit of excellence continues to this day.
