JONESBORO — Craighead Electric Cooperative of Jonesboro opened a new Paragould district office Monday. The open house for the community to see the new facility will be from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. June 16 with the ribbon cutting at 5 p.m.

According to Brian Duncan, president/CEO of Craighead Electric, the new office and warehouse will enable Craighead Electric’s 11 Paragould district employees to continue to serve the needs of members in northern Craighead and Greene counties.

The new office and warehouses are located at 7277 state Highway 69, just east of U.S. Highway 49. The facility has a 65,000-square-foot pole/supply yard in addition  to 3,000 square-feet of office space and 4,500 square-feet of warehouse storage.

The state-of-the-art facility has many of the energy-saving components which are commonly recommended by the cooperative, including high efficient air source heat pumps for heating and cooling; cellulose insulation; a super-high efficient heat pump water heater; and energy efficient lighting.


“Craighead Electric is committed to meeting the needs of our members,” Duncan said. “The new Paragould district office should increase the convenience of service for members, while allowing our members to better service the members.”

The cooperative’s Paragould district office has been located at 202 N. 35th Ave. for the past 18 years.

Craighead Electric Cooperative serves approximately 28,000 in eight counties in Northeast Arkansas. Incorporated in 1937, the cooperative operates offices in Jonesboro, Walnut Ridge and Paragould. The locally owned and managed organization has 100 employees.
