Good Friend Electric is one of the most progressive electrical and lighting distributors in the industry. Since 1937, our goal is to provide our customers with quality products and value added services that exceed their expectations. Good Friend Electric was founded in 1937 by Manny and Lillian Goodfriend and was located on Main Street in downtown Toms River, New Jersey. In 1949 Irving Rosen purchased the business from Manny and Lillian. In 1951 Irv and Manny became partners, and then in 1957 Irv became the sole owner again. Zev Rosen joined his father in 1957 at Goodfriend's Electric after graduating from Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute and working for General Electric. Later that year, Goodfriend's Electric was incorporated and became Good Friend Electric. In 1987, Good Friend Electric celebrated its 50th year in business and a 3rd generation, David Rosen joined the company. This year also marked the opening of its first branch location in Lacey, New Jersey. Good Friend has now grown to five locations adding: Brick in 1989, Manahawkin in 1995 and Lakewood in 1998.
