Awilco was founded in 1971 by Aksel Willumsen – having interest in electronics, he saw an advertisement for German Frieman & Wolf promoting wall outlet power supplies. The first box was ordered and supplied, and within short time Aksel Willumsen decided quit his day job to concentrate on supplying power supplies to the Nordic OEM’s, as an independent entrepreneur.
