Distributor of Electronic Components: Our Capabilities
Understanding Independent
Electronic Component Distributors
As an independent distributor, Suntsu has the advantage of being highly agile and flexible. This allows us to effectively tackle your sourcing challenges, even beyond the limitations of traditional authorized distributors.

What is an Electronic Component Distributor?
Electronic component distributors act as intermediaries between manufacturers and companies that design and produce electronic products. There are two types:
Independent Distributors
These distributors, like Suntsu, work independently and source components from a diverse range of sources. They provide a comprehensive selection of parts at competitive prices and can cater to your specific requirements. They are often able to locate rare components and handle obsolescence challenges more effectively.
Authorized Distributors
These distributors carry components from specific manufacturers with whom they have official agreements. While they offer expertise in those brands’ products, their selection may be limited, and pricing might be less flexible.
The Importance of Distributors for
Manufacturers and Engineers
Global Reach
They utilize their extensive global networks to source components, providing engineers with access to the necessary parts, regardless of location.
Design Support
They often complement manufacturers’ support by providing engineering expertise that can aid with part selection and design optimization.
Obsolete Electronic Component Solutions
Obsolescence is a constant threat in the electronic component industry. Independent distributors often maintain vast networks and expertise in sourcing discontinued components, helping engineers avoid costly redesigns and preventing manufacturing disruptions.
Market Agility
They can quickly adapt to changing market demands and supply chain fluctuations. This agility translates to a more reliable source of components for engineers, even during times of shortage.
