  After moving to Simi Valley in 1986, Rob realized that there was a great opportunity to use his 18 years of experience in Lighting and Electrical Wholesale to fill a need in Simi Valley. In 1989 he and Betsy opened Village View Lighting. Using Rob's philosophy of combining excellent Customer Service, with great pricing, he built Village View Lighting into the leading Lighting Wholesale House in Simi Valley. With a combined 172 years of lighting and electrical experience, Village View Lighting continues to grow and fulfill the Lighting and Electrical needs of Simi Valley, the Conejo Valley and beyond.

  Betsy started Village View Lighting in 1989 - not even knowing what a keyless was (while Rob still had a "real job" in the Electrical Wholesale Industry). After the 1st year, Village Lighting looked like it would succeed so Rob joined Betsy (yes, he knew what a keyless was). Starting in a 900 sq ft building with 2 employees, Village View Lighting has expanded through the years to a 15,000 sq ft space with 14 employees!
  Now Betsy runs the Central Coast Division, starting with a 1,200 sq ft space - 1 employee and 1 dog (Beatrice).

  John joined Village View Lighting in 1997. Johns expertise in the Commercial and Industrial side of the business includes switch gear and distribution quotations.
  With 44 years in the Electrical Industry, he brings to Village View a vast knowledge of the major product lines. All of our Electrical Contractors rely on John to advise them on take-offs, pricing, availability, delivery, (he even personally makes after-hour deliveries to keep jobs on schedule). When it comes to commercial lighting John is "The Man"!

  Although, Dale joined Village View Lighting in April of 2001, he and Rob worked together for over 12 years at another wholesale house. Dale has 31 years experience and a diverse knowledge in Electrical Wholesaling. Dale specializes in lighting, handles the lighting purchasing and assists Cindy with the decorative lighting line.

  Cindy came to Village View Lighting in 1993, from working as a Manufacturers Representative.

  Hal began his Electrical Wholesale career in the fall of 2000 when he joined Village View Lighting. Starting out in the warehouse, Hal's eagerness and ability to quickly learn the many product lines, along with his friendly manner earned him a position in Counter Sales. It didn't take long for Hal, a natural leader, to win the respect of his peers and move up to his current position of Warehouse Supervisor. He still helps customers on the counter but now he juggles those duties with routing the drivers, supervising purchasing and training new team members.

  After two years living on the streets of Simi Valley as a single mother, Zen was most grateful to be rescued by Rob and Betsy's daughter Alie, and brought to Village View Lighting where she quickly settled in as the beloved Warehouse Cat. Zen has forgotten all of her former mousing skills and has put on a cool twenty pounds now that her meals come regularly.

  Beatrice just joined Village View Lighting/Central Coast Division this year. Before this she was just a backyard dog. Her duties include riding shotgun in the Mini Cooper and greeting customers at the San Luis Obispo location.
