Without the foresight and courageous commitment of three determined brothers, Hiddlestone Electrics would not be here today celebrating 100 years of service to the fledgling little Perth settlement, whose name was taken from a small order of Benedictine monks, from Subiaco in Italy, who settled the area in the early 1850s.
When Howard, Albert (Bert) and Cecil (Cec) formed H. Hiddlestone Electrics in 1920, the last thing on their minds would have been the creation of a 100-year family dynasty, that would remain forever faithful and steadfast to its local roots.
Subsequent generations continued to maintain and grow the family business by never losing sight of the core values of loyalty, service, quality and value that determined the company’s enduring success in an environment where many larger, more high-profile business endeavours came and went. Despite rapid advances in technology and digital innovation, Hiddlestone Electrics will continue to remain successful and relevant in years to come by focusing on the delivery of the ‘good, reliable service’ promised by company stalwart, the late Vern Hiddlestone, to all customers in his beloved Subiaco and surrounding area.
