Product quality, brand reputation and supply capability receive
recognition from readers of ESM China
Nu Horizons Electronics (NASDAQ: NUHC) has been named one of China’s
Most Preferred 2009 Overseas Distributor designation by Electronics
Supply & Manufacturing – China (ESMC) Magazine in its recent annual
national wide components distributor survey. The award recognizes Nu
Horizons’ supply capabilities and strong reputation for providing
customers in China with quality products during calendar year 2008. Nu
Horizons also scored high in design support, competitive pricing and
supply flexibility.
“Nu Horizons is honored to be recognized as one of the most preferred
overseas distributors for the fourth consecutive year by ESMC,” said
Raymond Leung, regional vice president of Nu Horizons Greater China. “I
am proud of our China team’s outstanding sales performance for our
suppliers and commitment to provide leading-edge semiconductor
technology solutions to our customers. We will continue to invest in
local sales, engineering support and our local partners to ensure all
customer requirements and expectations are met.”
Conducted since 2001, ESMC’s annual Components Distributor Survey is the
most influential and authoritative look into China’s electronics
distribution. This year’s survey gathered 1200 qualified responses from
326 manufacturers, a majority of which are manufacturers of consumer
electronics, home appliances and communications systems. It also
represents a growth of 8% in response rate as compared to last year.
About 56% of the respondents are senior managers from the sales and
marketing functions, and 31% are President, VP and general management
positions. The rest are from both purchasing and technical management.
All together, these manufacturers were jointly responsible for buying
RMB 136 billion worth of electronics components last year, 54% of which
were through distributors. Apart from analyzing the selection process
and preference of manufacturers in China, the survey also serves as a
reliable reference for electronic manufacturers to benchmark the
performance of distributors and understand their actions and business
strategies they are implementing and adjusting in view of the current
and future trends.
