Our History

It Started With a Set of Wheels

Glenco’s story is a tale of grit, ambition, and building something greater from the ground up. Born from Les Coughlan’s entrepreneurial drive, a dream, and his beloved, fully restored 1969 Pontiac Firebird—sold to raise the company’s first capital—Glenco has grown into one of British Columbia’s leading electrical contractors. From humble beginnings operating out of a truck, we’ve evolved into a powerhouse behind some of the province’s largest and most complex electrical installations. Since 1987, we’ve focused on more than just electrical installations—we’ve focused on building a company made of great people. Collaboration, innovation, and excellence have always been at the heart of what we do, allowing us to push boundaries and continuously refine how we deliver projects. 

After building Glenco beyond anything he could have imagined, Les’s story came full circle when he fulfilled his childhood dream: owning a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. Today, that same spirit of dedication, bold vision, and hard-earned success continues to drive everything we do at Glenco.
