A Fortune 200 company with 11,300 employees worldwide, Arrow brings the technology solutions of its customers and suppliers to a breadth of markets, including telecommunications, information systems, automotive and transportation, medical and life sciences, industrial equipment and consumer electronics.

Arrow provides specialized services and expertise at each stage of a product's life cycle, accelerating and simplifying the journey from concept to market. Each product's journey begins with the technology innovations of Arrow's suppliers who introduce thousands of new components and computer products each month. Arrow's customers use that technology to design and manufacture products from home security systems to global telecommunications networks.

 

This journey from concept to market has become increasingly complex in today's business environment. Arrow customers frequently design and manufacture products across multiple, global locations. Rapid changes in technology add new dimensions to product design and manufacturing. Arrow makes connections across a complex supply chain, manages that complexity, and injects speed at each juncture of the journey to market for technology products with design, fulfillment, materials planning, inventory management, and manufacturing solutions.

 

With 70 years of industry experience, Arrow demonstrates the ability to be innovative and responsive to global business demands and requirements, working together with its customers and suppliers to ensure their business success.
