Lamar Electric Co-op now has more room to do, well, everything. Last month, the organization moved to its new home on Highway 82 just outside of Blossom with 14,000 square feet, according to CEO and General Manager Jerry Williams. âThis is the first time in the history of our co-op the headquarters is located in a rural area and able to service ourselves,â Williams said. âWe wanted to be closer to our membership.â The old building, which has housed the LEC since 1937, was just outside of the downtown area in Paris, and outside of the co-opâs service range. The old building was becoming extremely crowded, and they even had to keep some trucks at service stations instead of at the headquarters. Employees are enjoying the change.
