About Us

TOA Electric USA, Inc. started in 2001 in Lexington, Kentucky with one goal in mind - provide advanced manufacturing solutions through engineering excellence.

In 2007, we renamed to TOA SE (Systems Engineering) and have since grown and expanded our capabilities to best serve the leading manufacturers in the region.

We pride ourselves on our automation prowess and industry acclaimed service and support. The difference lies in our people and customer-first principles. From concept to confirmation, the TOA difference remains apparent.

History

Founded in 1956 as TOA Electronics Company in Nagoya, Japan, the TOA Group has thrived as a premier provider of FA system design, control panel fabrication, electronic components, and semiconductors. TOA Electric USA was founded in Lexington, Kentucky in 2001 as TOA’s first overseas establishment, focusing on Factory Automation and Systems Integration for manufacturers in the surrounding region. Moving to a new facility in Nicholasville in 2007, we changed our name to TOA SE, Inc. in 2010. Taking full advantage of the extensive knowledge base amassed over the years since our founding in Japan, TOA SE proudly provides North America with engineering services in the design, assembly, and integration of automated control systems.
