Poing, Munich -- EBV Elektronik, an Avnet (NYSE:AVT) Company and EMEA's leading specialist in semiconductor distribution, has been named "European Distributor of the Year" by OSRAM Opto Semiconductors for the fourth consecutive year.
"We are extremely proud to receive this award and of the fact that we are now receiving it for the fourth year in a row. These awards are particularly important to us in view of the fact that we have only been working with OSRAM Opto Semiconductors since 2003," said Slobodan Puljarevic, president and CEO of EBV Elektronik. "OSRAM Opto Semiconductors is a leading global provider of lighting solutions based on semiconductor technology and is therefore a strategic partner for EBV. Our activities in the field of general lighting will be further intensified in the coming years and OSRAM Opto Semiconductors' excellent portfolio will make a considerable contribution to achieving our ambitious goals. We look forward to working together successfully in the future too," he added.
"For OSRAM Opto Semiconductors, as the leading manufacturer of LEDs, the market for general lighting is an extremely important one. We have therefore established a partner network, LED-Light-for-You (LLFY), in order to help customers create LED lighting solutions," commented Michael Wohs, director of Global Distribution & EMS at OSRAM Opto Semiconductors. "In its function as an LLFY network partner, EBV is extremely active in the solid-state lighting market. However, OSRAM and EBV have also worked together successfully for a number of years in other market segments. For this reason, it gives me particular pleasure to present the award for the highest-selling distributor of OSRAM Opto semiconductors in 2007 to EBV for the fourth consecutive year. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all EBV employees for their hard work and their commitment on behalf of our company," added Wohs.
