Matthew W. Costa
Owner of MACO Electric
Matt Costa’s journey in the electrical field began in 2010 as a freshman at New Bedford Vocational Technical High School. It was there that he discovered his passion for the unique and inexplicable anomaly of electricity. With a father who was a general contractor, Matt quickly put his skills to work on side projects for the family business, gaining hands-on experience that solidified his interest in the trade. His first professional opportunity came through a co-op program at a local rubber manufacturing facility in New Bedford, Massachusetts, where he began his industrial electrical career as an apprentice electrician. This experience ignited his enthusiasm for industrial electrics and introduced him to the intricate processes that power manufacturing facilities.
After completing the co-op program, Matt expanded his expertise by working for a small electrical contracting company in Assonet, Massachusetts. Here, he provided commercial electrical services to local businesses and explored light industrial processes that keep the world running. His career took a significant leap forward when he joined AFC Cable Systems, a wire and cable manufacturer in New Bedford. During his time at AFC, Matt gained invaluable experience working on manufacturing control systems, designing new machinery, and traveling across the United States to troubleshoot and install equipment. Collaborating closely with AFC’s ACS/Unifab division, he helped develop innovative product lines that expanded the company’s portfolio.
Despite these opportunities, Matt felt a gap in the industry. He recognized a need for electricians who could combine technical expertise with a holistic approach to solving industrial electrical problems. Driven by a commitment to high-quality work and a desire to bridge this gap, Matt founded Maco Electric, LLC, in 2020. Operating out of his grandfather’s barbershop on Brigham Street, he embraced the nostalgia of old-school techniques and focused on delivering exceptional service. Starting with residential projects, the company quickly grew, securing commercial accounts and establishing a reputation for excellence.
At the heart of Maco Electric is a deep appreciation for the team. Inspired by a lifelong mentor’s advice—”Take care of your people first, because without them, you have nothing”—Matt views his employees as family. This philosophy shapes the company’s culture and fuels its success. Looking ahead, Matt aims to expand Maco Electric’s capabilities in industrial electrics, enhance safety training, and develop innovative products. With a team that shares his passion for electricity, Matt is committed to delivering industry-leading quality and continuing to grow the legacy of Maco Electric.
