Arrow Electronics extends distribution agreement with Schurter to EMEA

Arrow Electronics and the Schurter Group announced today the expansion of their existing distribution agreement to the entire EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region. Both companies have worked together in Central Europe since 2005. Schurter is a leading innovator, manufacturer, and distributor of fuses, connectors, circuit breakers, input systems, and EMC products. Founded in 1933, the company is an important service provider for the PCB-assembly and electronics industries. Arrow is an important global distributor within Schurter's sales network. "We are pleased to extend our collaboration", says Matthias Jeck, senior group manager of passive product management for Arrow in EMEA. "Schurter offers comprehensive packages—from the initial concept to the actual delivery of systems ready for mounting. It was a natural step to extend the breadth of our agreement, and our partner's know-how will benefit our entire customer base across the EMEA region." "This new agreement is an important commitment to our successful cooperation with Arrow", says Hans-Rudolf Schurter, chairman and CEO of the Schurter Group. "Arrow's customers benefit from better access to our innovative products and expertise thanks to this geographical expansion." Arrow Europe Schurter
