History

David and Christine Bergmann started Laketown Electric Corporation in 1975.  The company is recently celebrating its 37th anniversary in business.  When Laketown Electric started, David performed the electrical work in the field.  During that time, most of his work was conversion of apartments to condominiums in downtown Minneapolis.  That work dried up in the early 1980s and Bergmann went on to concentrate his business in the commercial and industrial areas.  Laketown Electric started out as a union contractor.  The union rejected Bergmann’s brother in 1981, so Bergmann left the union and became a merit-shop contractor. 

Laketown Electric is known as a contractor that takes on tough projects and completes them on time and on budget.  The company’s specialties are food processing plants, medical facilities, specialty clinics, manufacturing of all types and generator systems.  A majority of LEC’s projects are design-build and we are pleased to offer an electrical engineer on staff, Dave and Christine’s son Chris.

Laketown Electric looks forward to growing its business through the addition of David and Christine’s son Matt Bergmann, who leads the organization¹s business development, marketing and strategic business alliance efforts.  LEC is primed for significant growth and we look forward to helping our clients achieve their goals and grow, while we aim for the same end result.
