It is with deep sadness that we mark the passing of Mr Hugh Middendorp. 

Hugh had a pivotal role in the foundation of Middendorp Electric Co P/L from its inception, working with his father and brothers, Peter and Nick, firstly in the Middendorp manufacturing plant in Preston in the 1930s. Together they progressed the business into the new millennia and grew Middy’s into Australia’s largest independent electrical wholesaler.

Victoria entered stage 4 restrictions which came into effect from 11.59pm, 12 February.

Our focus remains to help protect your health and safety as well as that of our staff. Rest assured that Middy's will continue to follow all government guidelines.
