The Lighting Center at Rockingham Electric Home & Garden Lighting

We're extremely proud of our 60-plus year history, a story that begins literally with bargains in the basement offered by a little family business in New Hampshire. Started by Mr. Louis Porrovecchio in 1951, Rockingham Electric originally operated from the cellar of his home in Portsmouth. His wife tended the books and he stocked and sold the parts. Rockingham Electric incorporated and issued stock for the first time in 1954, using the new capital to expand its operations into larger quarters (albeit still in the basement) beneath Portsmouth's Italian-American Club on Court Street. By 1958, the Porrovecchios were ready for change and they sold the company's outstanding stock to Mr. Herbert Clifford. Clifford was a Lynn (MA) electrical contractor seeking to expand and relocate his existing electrical supply business. For the sum of $38,000 Clifford acquired Rockingham Electric and founded the company we know today.
