Brief History of the Michigan City Location

Spina Enterprises’ Michigan City location began as Harrison Electric, Inc. They were in business since 1962 and were initially owned by Lou Halter. In 1985, Tom Walma purchased the business. At the time, the business was housed in a 5,000-square-foot facility and employed 3 workers.

As business began to increase, the building became too small. In 1992, property was purchased on the south side of Michigan City, IN where a 17,000-square-foot building was constructed. In 2009, a 5,000-square-foot building on the same property was constructed. And in 2015, a 15,000-square-foot expansion was added to the larger building, including a 50-ton crane. 

In late 2022, Spina Enterprises acquired Harrison Electric, Inc. Spina Enterprises’ main facility is located in Warren, MI. Personnel from both companies are excited about the acquisition and can’t wait to write the next chapter of the organization.
