In recognition of its success driving sales growth, RS Components has signed a global franchise agreement with ON Semiconductor.

"RS clearly understands the needs of our customers, and is constantly honing methods to hasten the products' path to market, which profits the entire supply chain," commented Jeff Thomson, ON Semiconductor vp of global channel sales. "This agreement will strengthen our relationship and open up opportunities for future growth."

The trading brand for Electrocomponents, RS stocks around 2,500 devices in the ON Semiconductor portfolio. According to ON, the company was appointed as an official channel partner due to its online customer service resources and eCommerce strategy.
