Avnet Awarded Fiscal Year 2022 Exceptional Growth Award by Omron Electronic Components

Omron Electronic Components, a leading global manufacturer of electronic components, announced that Avnet has been recognized with the Fiscal Year 2022 Exceptional Growth Award. The winner was announced at EDS Leadership Summit in Las Vegas, NV. The award recognizes Avnet for its outstanding performance in supporting Omron's customers and partners.

“Omron congratulates Avnet for superior performance in POS and POP growth in Omron’s fiscal year 2022 during which their sales growth exceeded that of all distributor channel partners. We commend the entire Avnet team on their sales growth and were proud to present them with the inaugural Exceptional Growth Award.” – Caroline Wells, Senior Distribution Sales Manager

This was the first year for the Exceptional Growth Award, which recognizes and celebrates a distributor’s superior sales growth in both POS and POP, as compared to all channel partners.

“Avnet is honored to receive the 2022 Exceptional Growth award from Omron. Our longstanding relationship, collaborative approach and focus on growth opportunities has led to great success for both companies.” – Leo Castellon, Product Line Director

In the spirit of OMRON's mission: "To improve lives and contribute to a better society," a $5,000 donation will be made in honor of Avnet’s achievement. Avnet has chosen to have the donation made to ICAN, a free afterschool program in Chandler and Mesa that serves 700 at-risk youth each year, with academic support, STEAM programs, positive youth development and sports/recreation.
