According to Alex Grout, European distribution manager at Omron, over 10 years, the Wisbech-based distributor has developed into the supplier's number one distributor in the UK and Ireland.
The distributor was recognised for its demand creation, logistics and investment in stock support.
Anglia has also added to its field application engineering and its key account management teams this year. "Their forward thinking approach and their exceptional team has allowed Anglia to grow ahead of the market, and ensures that they will continue to grow with Omron in the future,” said Grout.
Last month, Anglia made an ambitious move into the online component distribution market with the launch of a website for design engineers.
The website, called Anglia Live, will give visibility of the volume availability of 300,000 products from 150 suppliers for UK-based designs moving to full production.
This is a significant new venture for Anglia which will offer next day delivery, small volume orders and for the first time, free delivery on orders over £30.
It will also post real-time stock availability information on its website.
“Omron is recognised throughout the industry for its continued innovation, and we are excited about the opportunities that its latest technologies present. We see great potential for the innovative G9EN relay in high power DC applications, and the new D6T MEMS based thermal sensor in improving the performance of building automation systems as well as in industrial control and other applications,” said Graham Bridger, marketing director, Anglia Components
