In Memory of SRC Founder Jerry Sexton
“Quality is our primary concern along with on-time delivery and cost efficiency.”
The words of our father and SRC founder Jerry Sexton (1947 – 2010) will continue to direct everything we do. His legacy will be seen in the individual attention we provide to each customer, the efforts we make to solve their problems, the engineering behind our long-term solutions, and the quality of every single wire harness we produce.
