Welcome to JF Kilfoil Company, your trusted partner in the electronics industry since April 1, 1953. Our journey began with our first and still largest partnership with Speer Electronics (now KOA Speer), which started with the desire to expand into the Midwest electronics market. Our portfolio now includes various technology partners such as KOA Speer, Harwin, Knowles, Sumitomo, and PalPilot. Over the years, we’ve evolved and grown our array of technology partner lines and completed several targeted acquisitions. These changes have positioned us for outstanding service and engineering counsel – our hallmark since the company’s founding.
We have earned a reputation across sectors like Automotive, Industrial Automation, Test & Measurement, Military, Appliance, and Contract Manufacturing. We ensure quality and reliability, whether passives, connectors, electromechanical components, or printed circuit boards.
Our philosophy is simple: “The proof is in the line card.” Each of our technology partners contributes to our collective strength. We align ourselves with manufacturers who are pioneers in their fields, continuously evolving our line card while maintaining focus on our customers. We operate with honesty, integrity, and a sense of urgency, committed to fostering long-term relationships and adding value for our customers and partners. We strive daily to answer the question, “What are you creating, and what are you closing?”
Under the leadership of a third-generation Kilfoil, we are poised to fortify our position in the industry. We have created an elevated manufacturers’ rep model, driving growth in our technology partner’s offerings through an engaged sales team, advanced distribution visibility, and market-leading systems.
