"The internet has really helped us do things that wouldn't have been possible years ago," he says matter-of-factly.
Electrodyne has approximately 30 employees at its 35,000 square foot facility which is located on Eisenhower Avenue in Alexandria, Virginia. They have their own R&D department, complete with their own model shop - this is something that's unique to Electrodyne - very few shops have the abilities to manufacture their own molds and mock-ups in house.
Chet states, "We have a guy here who is a genious at crafting wooden mock-ups. He can design something in wood, test it and we can build it from there. It might sound odd, but the wood models are really helpful for the mock-up process."
By keeping the majority of the production equipment and machinery in house, Electrodyne is able to keep a close eye on quality, and can quickly develop a new part or accessory if and when the market demands it. "It really gives us an upper hand in the business," as Chet points out. "We create things that people normally copy."
Electrodyne also campaigns show cars, and has been featured in various magazines. They've built everything from Volkswagen Golf's to BMW 5-series, and they've built 'em well. They use the vehicles to showcase new products and to help give consumers some ideas of what's available for their own vehicles.
From Audi to Volkswagen, BMW to PT Cruiser, Electrodyne has a product or replacement part that's sure to suit your needs. They're constantly developing new parts and don't seem to be content to rest on their laurels. Their business philosophy is simple - stock what you sell, know what you're selling and try to build everything better than everyone else.
Chet and the gang at Electrodyne are top notch people, and we're proud to have been able to chat with them. Visit them on the
web at http://www.electrodyne.cc/, or call them at 1-800-296-8850 and be
