City Electrical Factors: Your Electrical Experts
City Electrical Factors may be known as CEF to many people. They are a business that sells many electrical items, security devices, and relevant accessories. They have a strong presence in the UK, taking up much of the market, but they also operate in Spain, Australia, North America, and Ireland. In the UK, they currently have more than 400 branches offering an extensive line of products. Their products include but are not limited to, cables and cable management devices, CCTV security, domestic appliances, lighting, electronic testing equipment, safety wear, industrial controls, tools, and fixtures. They support the trade and also the general public with their sales operations. It is usually a large store with aisles full of DIY products that you can purchase to install on your own or hire someone to assist. This includes light switches, plugs, and small electrical components to fix household objects.
With over 400 outlets in the UK, you will be able to find a store nearby in most towns and cities, especially in London, Glasgow, and Birmingham.
Most City Electrical Factor locations have standardised opening times: Monday through Friday between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., limited service on Saturdays starting at 8 a.m. and closing at noon, and closed on Sundays.

Their locations operate on limited hours on holidays such as New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Christmas, Boxing Day, and bank holidays.
Their recognisable branding and logo make finding one of their branches easier. The CEF logo includes three red squares with one of the company’s initials written in white capitals on each of the squares. The squares have a grey outline, and their slogan, “Your Electrical Experts,” is written in capital letters below.
Their business is recognisable to many of their past, current, and potential customers. However, like many businesses, many people will not be aware of some interesting facts surrounding how they started and how they operate. These include:
- Established over 60 years ago
- Their first branch was in Coventry
- They have over 400 recycling facilities to support their eco-policies
- They track all orders from an in-house IT system
- They have a “no-charge” delivery policy
Their products include wiring, accessories to store wiring safely, security systems such as CCTV networks, domestic appliances, ventilation and heating systems perfect for homes and commercial settings, lamps, electronic testing gear, a vast number of tools to help use their products, PPE equipment, and many more highly sought goods. Their range of products points to a broad customer base that will include domestic property owners, office owners, and other commercial environments—this can also include trade purchasers.
You can buy their products in a physical store or online. Store staff or the online chat tool can advise you in both locations if you require assistance. Buying online also allows you to open a CEF account. All products are delivered free of charge and tracked by the company. The company also provides recycling stations for customers to bring used and unwanted goods.
CEF was established in 1951. They opened their first branch in Coventry and have expanded significantly ever since. In the first ten years of trading, two more branches were opened. Since then, the following decades saw a much faster growth rate, with 39, 148, 156, and 54 more branches added each subsequent decade. They now have over 400 branches in the UK, a firm grip on the market, and a solid customer base, allowing them to expand internationally. With their strong customer support base, they can expect to continue this expansion as they become more attractive to the public and trade purchasers.
