As of 1 February, Rutronik and STMicroelectronics are extending their long-standing partnership to the United Kingdom, Ireland, Scandinavia - including Denmark - and the Baltic states. The two companies have been cooperating successfully since Rutronik was founded in 1973. Most recently, the partnership covered Central Europe (Benelux, Germany, Austria, Switzerland), France, Italy and Eastern Europe (Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria and Russia).ST is one of the most important Rutronik franchise partners for semiconductors. The manufacturer offers a comprehensive product range of discrete components, analogue ICs, storage technologies and microcontrollers. Together with ST, Rutronik can offer perfectly harmonised system solutions for the most varied applications in fast growing markets. This makes the cooperation between the two companies successful, especially in the areas of Factory Automation, Automotive, Lighting, Connectivity, Home Appliance and Power Supply.
- Thanks to the expansion of our cooperation with ST we can tap into new markets and thus further strengthen our pan-European sales network. Thanks to its broad product range, STMicroelectronics provides a perfect complement to our product portfolio. In the many years of cooperation ST has proved to be a reliable partner, explains Wolfgang Sayer, ST Line Manager at Rutronik.
- In the next few years we want to further increase our activities in the field of design-in in cooperation with ST and to increase growth together.
Loïc Toubin, Key Account Manager at STMicroelectronics adds:
- The long and successful cooperation made the expansion of the franchise contract with Rutronik into an important component of our growth strategy in Europe. The main factor that we appreciate about Rutronik is the local support for customers by experienced sales and application teams with very good product and market knowledge as well as the outstanding delivery performance from customised warehousing.
