Suntronika joins the Mobicon family
23 January 2013
News
Towards the end of last year, the Mobicon Group, listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange, acquired the business of Suntronika through its South African subsidiary Mantech.
Founded in the late ‘70s by the Sun family, Suntronika has grown to become a significant player in the distribution of passives, switches, relays, transformers, semiconductors and other electronic components. Over the years, customers have enjoyed excellent service and supply continuity from famous brands such as Piher, Magnetics, Power-One, Fischer Connectors, Meggitt, Bussmann, Taiyo-Yuden, LSI and others.
Now that Suntronika enjoys the benefits of belonging to the marketing machine that is the Mobicon group, its customers can experience immediate, hassle-free access to the hundreds of thousands of product lines that the group has on offer. Additionally, through the Cape and KZN branches of Mantech, Suntronika will be able to raise its service levels to all its customers in those regions.
From a purely economic point of view, Suntronika is now also poised in a more price competitive position and should be able to offer its customers attractive savings on their electronic component purchases.
