Arrow Electronics and TT electronics have embarked on the new initiative to enhance the long term strategic trading relationship first started back in 1999.
Reciprocal sales between Arrow and TT electronics have grown steadily as new lines like BI and Optek have been added to the Arrow linecard and as TT electronics' companies world-wide have increased their supply chain focus and demand for products supplied by Arrow.
To further enhance their supply chain offer, Arrow has recruited a new Account Executive to work on site at the TTems facility in Rogerstone and provide a dedicated service to their materials department. The move is another development in the Preferred Distribution partnership that has seen Arrow sales to TTems grow to new multi-million pound levels.
Arrow's extensive linecard, strong commercial relationships and extensive design support capability to the OEM customer base will continue to help TT electronics to drive further Materials and Procurement programmes forward. Arrow's global reach will allow it to support these programmes both in the UK and in other regions of the world where TT electronics have PCA production.
Speaking of the partnership between TTems and Arrow, TTems Purchasing Director Nick Eales says:
"TT electronics' partnership with Arrow has gone from strength to strength in the last couple of years. Reciprocal trading agreements are firmly established and Arrow is a key provider of logistical and distribution services to a number of TT electronics plants worldwide. We will continue to work closely with Arrow to deliver the total cost solutions required in this demanding market sector. Having a dedicated Arrow executive in the materials department at TTems Rogerstone is another example of the proactive supply chain management that will enhance the site's efficiency."
