Cerrowire is one of the premiere copper building wire manufacturers in the industry. Founded in 1920 as Circle Flexible Conduit Company manufacturing armored cable and steel flexible conduit. The 1930s to 1950s saw product expansion and a name change from Circle Wire & Cable to Cerrowire & Cable Company. In 1976, the Marmon Group acquired Cerrowire and later moved the company’s headquarters to Hartselle, Alabama. In 2008, Berkshire Hathaway Inc acquired a majority interest in the Marmon Group, further solidifying Cerrowire’s future in the building wire industry for years to come.
