Avnet, Inc. (NYSE: AVT), a leading global technology
distributor, recently received the Distributor of the Year Award
for Semiconductor Products in the Americas from Vishay
Intertechnology, Inc. The award was based on sales records for the
fiscal year ending March 31. This is the second time in five years
that Avnet’s superior sales performance has earned it Distributor
of the Year honors from Vishay.
Vishay Intertechnology, a leading manufacturer of passive and
discrete semiconductor products, is one of Avnet’s longest running
franchise relationships. In 2013, the two companies celebrated
their milestone 50th year of doing business together. Vishay signed
Avnet as a distributor just one year after the company was formed
in 1962 to bring its patented Bulk Metal® foil resistors to market.
Today the two companies work to bring Vishay’s state-of-the-art
discrete semiconductors, optoelectronics, integrated modules, and
passive components to Avnet’s broad customer base around the
globe.
“Earning the Vishay Distributor of the Year award holds special
meaning for us. It’s a great reflection of the ongoing, and
growing, value that Avnet and Vishay bring to the market,” said Ed
Smith, president, Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas. “At Avnet,
we take pride in the role we play in supporting both the technical
and supply chain requirements of our customers and suppliers.
Winning this award for a second time in a few short years confirms
that strength.”
“Vishay is excited to recognize Avnet Electronics Marketing
Americas' semiconductor performance in Y2015,” said Dave Valletta,
executive vice president, sales, Vishay. “Avnet’s dedication to
providing excellent service, consistent business development and
‘available to sell’ semiconductor inventory is beneficial to Vishay
customers.”
