A View of the Electronics Supply Chain from a Distributor's Point of View
In this episode, Buyers Meeting Point welcomes Mark Larson as our guest. Mark is the Vice Chairman at Digi-Key Electronics, one of the fastest growing distributors of electronic components in the world. The company was founded in 1972 and Mark joined only four years later. In the two decades since, it seems safe to say that there has been considerable change – in the electronics Digi-key sells, in who they sell those products to, and the supply chains the products travel through. It is those supply chains that we are here to discuss today.
