ProSource Dominates Top 100 Tech Rankings

BrandSource’s Bekins places in CE Pro’s Retail Top 10

By Alan Wolf, YSN

ProSource’s self-description as the country’s largest custom integration group was further validated this month with the release of CE Pro magazine’s venerable Top 100 rankings.

The BrandSource tech affiliate dominated the 24th annual listing, which ranks the nation’s leading custom integrators by installation sales volume. Fully 57 ProSource members and associate members charted this year, led by Chicagoland’s Abt Electronics (No. 4) with an estimated $98 million in billings; Greater Philadelphia’s World Wide Stereo (No. 6) with a reported $52.6 million in installation revenue; and Omaha-based Nebraska Furniture Mart (No. 7), which pulled in some $28.7 million in installed CE systems in 2022.

Also making the grade was BrandSource’s own Bekins, the Cooperville, Mich.-based appliance and electronics dealer, which maintains membership in both buying groups. Bekins placed 14th on the Top 100 with a reported $14.8 million in installation volume, an increase of 10% year over year, and ranked fifth on CE Pro’s Top 10 list of custom retailers and e-tailers.
