About John Imbaratto

Over the course of my career, one principle has ensured my success and my customers\' success: a deep‑rooted commitment to providing excellent service. Going above and beyond for my customers is at the core of how I build relationships, and I take pride in what I’m able to achieve for the businesses I work with.As President and Managing Partner at Worldwide Power Distribution, I lead a team focused exclusively on temporary power distribution rentals, helping customers across the United States get the right transformers, distribution equipment, transfer switches, and cables for their projects—whether planned or emergency. My ultimate goal remains the same: to find the right solution and ensure the best possible outcome for my customers, whatever it takes.Thanks to my project management background and 20+ years of experience in low, medium, and high-voltage equipment rentals, I know exactly what it takes to ensure my customers’ success. In previous roles, I became a go‑to resource for temporary power projects that required custom packages, fast response, and hands‑on support in the field.Before stepping into leadership roles on the rental side, I was a temporary power customer myself, overseeing projects that involved HVAC systems, generators, and power distribution for major events and critical operations. That perspective shaped how I approach every job today—with clear communication, reliability, and a focus on solving problems, not just renting equipment.What my experience has taught me is that great service in the temporary power industry means owning the outcome for your customer from the first phone call to the final pickup. Taking this approach throughout my career has paid off not only in generating success for my customers but also in building a strong, closely connected network of industry partners and professionals I’m proud to work alongside.
