History

Tecate Industries was founded in 1975 by Ralph Scarano, a San Diego electronics engineer and entrepreneur with more than 60 years' experience in the capacitor industry. With the vision that capacitors could be cost-effectively manufactured in Mexico, Ralph selected the border town of Tecate as the location for his first manufacturing facility, giving the company not only its capacitors, but its name. By 1987, the company was headed by Ralph's son Bob Scarano and had grown enough to add a new division. Tecate Products was founded to meet the audio and automotive industries' needs for contract manufacturing and full turn-key design. Within a few short years, Tecate Products had received the QS9000 certification and built a client list that included eight of the ten largest national speaker manufacturers and all three of the major domestic automakers. In the early 2000s, the Tecate Industries and Tecate Products divisions merged into a single entity, the Tecate Group. Benefiting from the synergy developed through Tecate Industries' capacitor experience and Tecate Products' assembly experience, in 2004 the Tecate Group began to design, build, and market ultracapacitor cells and modules. Tecate pioneered the concept of the off-the-shelf module, which allowed customers to test the technology before designing their own custom modules, and the Tecate Group also launched an online store to support design engineers' need for quick delivery of small-quantity orders. Tecate is now the leading provider of ultracapacitors for the data storage and smart grid industries, with a high-profile customer list that continues to expand.
