Outstanding commitment and service from specialist distributor rewarded

TTI Europe scooped the award by increasing sales in Europe over 2015-16, achieving both the greatest sales growth from the existing customer base and also growing the number of new Harwin customers by 6% over the previous year. Sales by TTI Europe increased across the entire Harwin product portfolio and in all markets. In addition, TTI Europe demonstrated sales excellence by its outstanding customer retention rate and investment in inventory.

Presenting the Award to Ronald Velda, Director of Supplier Marketing, TTI VP, Harwin European Sales Manager, Gavin Darling, said: ”It’s a truly great pleasure to present TTI Europe with this year’s European Sales Excellence Award. Our sales in Europe over the past year have been buoyant and we are pleased with the performance of our distribution partners overall, but TTI has shown outstanding commitment to the Harwin brand through enlarging our customer base and increasing order values from existing customers across the entire product portfolio to achieve this excellent result. Our mutual customers benefit greatly not only from TTI’s policy of holding broad and deep inventory of our parts for immediate shipment from its facility in Germany, but also the knowledge and experience of its staff in its 46 European sales branches. Congratulations and thank you to everyone at TTI on behalf of Harwin.”

Accepting the Award, Ronald Velda, Director Supplier Marketing, TTI replied: “Harwin’s connector ranges enjoy a well-deserved reputation for excellence in the industry and have received many accolades and awards for their innovative design. Product families such as the Datamate, Gecko and M300 ranges address the needs of our customers, particularly for demanding hi–rel applications. TTI and Harwin are a successful partnership and we look forward to continuing to work together for the benefit of our mutual customers.”
