Already for the twelfth time, the German electronics magazine "Elektronik" has presented awards to electronics distributors. The decision for the awards was made by their customers in the context of the annual reader's choice “Distributor of the Year”. A particularly high number of awards went to Rutronik: The distributor proudly made the podium 21 times, taking seven first, six second, and eight third places. This shows that Rutronik truly lives up to its motto “Committed to Excellence”.

The distribution industry has changed significantly in recent years, with consulting, support, and other additional services becoming increasingly important in addition to logistics and delivery processing. This is why distributors were rated by readers also on their performance in these areas for “Distributor of the Year” in the categories Active Components, Passive Components, Electromechanics, Optoelectronics, Embedded, and Displays.

Rutronik was recognized in many categories and areas – proof that the strategy of focusing on a wide-ranging product portfolio and comprehensive consulting services is appreciated and rewarded by its customers. Thomas Rudel, CEO of Rutronik, said:

“We are very proud of these awards. We owe this success to our outstanding, expert employees. With our highly qualified team of product managers and field application engineers (FAEs), we support our customers from the initial idea through to the mass production of a product. This is the essence of our strategy – only proven by our success. And it motivates us to set the bar even higher next year.”
