Did You Know? LEDtronics Has Been Creating the Future of Light Since 1983

By LEDtronics, Inc.

Our company was founded In 1983 by Pervaiz Lodhie and his wife Almas in their home in Torrance, CA. Pervaiz is a third generation engineer who was born in India and raised in Pakistan. He was driven to the US by his entrepreneurial spirit and innovative nature. although LED lights at the time were much dimmer than today, Pervaiz recognized their potential to be a revolutionary solution to the many drawbacks of the common incandescent bulb. Faced with the challenge to innovate the future of light, he became one of the first to retrofit LED technology into a replacement bulb.

Originally, LEDs replaced incandescent bulbs in indicator lights used in aircrafts and broadcast equipment. We, at LEDtronics have taken the single use LED light and transformed it into thousands of applications and over 10,000 LED products.

Over the past 29 years, we have conducted business with 80% of the Fortune 500 Companies and distinguished ourselves in the lighting industry by our dedication to our customers’ specific needs.

While evolving into one of the world’s leading manufacturers of LED Lighting Products, we have managed to remain a USA Manufacturer. When the threat of low-cost overseas competitors presented itself, instead of turning to the quick-fix, Lodhie developed his own business model to preserve both his employee’s jobs and his USA manufacturing facility.

LEDtronics has been creating the future of light since 1983 and we pride ourselves on providing the most efficient and earth friendly lighting source in the present and future.
