Pat Kehoe

Pat Kehoe was and still is today the inspiration behind the Kehoe Electronics company name. Pat Kehoe, Founder of Pace Electronics DBA Kehoe Component Sales, started his business in 1969 as one of the first stocking distributors for Pacific Rim manufacturers in the United States. In 1996, Pat Kehoe opened a Contract Manufacturing facility in southern China where it is still in operation today. This is where Sarah Kehoe-Northrop experienced manufacturing, nurturing, and supporting sub assemblies and complex builds. In 2012 shortly before Pat Kehoe’s death, Sarah started her own Manufacturing Rep Firm, Kehoe Electronics. The purpose of naming the company, Kehoe Electronics was to keep her Grandfather’s legacy going on and present in the electronics industry. Words he lived by: work hard, never burn a bridge, honesty is the best policy, always move forward, and give back.”
