OUR HISTORY
Electric Motors NW has been a family owned, Electric Motors Sales and Service specialist for nearly 30 years. EMNW began as FWB Enterprises in 1993 by Frank Barson, an award-winning salesman and electric motor expert. Prior to starting FWB, Frank honed his craft as a salesman, working for two other industrial electric companies, Industrial Electric and Sea-Alaska. Frank was doing so well as a salesman, he knew that he could be more successful on his own and ventured out to form FWB Enterprises.
In October of 1995, Frank’s FWB Enterprises was named Hottest New Business in America by Entrepreneur Magazine. He was honored as a brand rep by earning the “Distributor of the Year” award from Teco and an “Outstanding Sales Achievement” award by Leeson. Frank was an artist when it came to sales, creating a bond with every customer that he encountered.
Sean Barson joined forces with his dad and partner Lucy in the late 2000’s, and began the process of taking over EMNW (FWB), officially taking on his role as owner in 2012. When Frank retired in 2017, word spread that other sales reps in the area were “relieved” that they no longer had to compete with Frank.
Today, EMNW supplies Electric Motors and service to industries throughout the PNW. Major commercial fishing and industrial manufacturing companies, depend on EMNW and Sean, to supply them with the critical motor equipment and services that they need to run successfully.

Meet Owner, Sean Barson
Sean began his career in Industrial Electric Motors during the late 90’s, when he went to work with his dad, Frank at FWB Enterprises. In 1998, Sean signed on as an electrical apprentice with Active Engineering and in 2002, he left Active to begin his career as an Electrician. Sean spent the next decade honing his craft, working for reputable PNW businesses and organizations including Redhook Brewery, Microsoft and the University of Washington. Sean took over Electric Motors NW (FWB Enterprises) in 2012, with his dad, Frank officially retiring in 2017.
The family environment that EMNW embodies, is very important to Sean. The many relationships he has formed with his customers and the ability to help others — while being his own boss — brings him a sense of fulfillment, and a great work-life-balance. If he isn’t running to a service call or working alongside office manager Kasshia, he is out golfing and camping with his wife Christina, attending a concert or hiking with his dog Bailey.
