OUR STORY Our family has deep roots in serving the Inland Northwest. Owned and operated by the Hanley family, every evolution of our business over the years has weaved together our values of providing quality service and persistence to get the job done right. Arch Hanley spent his youth working on his family’s farm, tending to the garden and helping to raise the animals. In 1935, at the age of 18, he ventured off to TV repair school. He started ACME Electric in Spokane, Washington in 1945 as a radio and appliance repair store.
