Distributes electronic parts and business IT
Arrow Electronics distributes electronic components and enterprise computing products, linking technology makers with the manufacturers, resellers and service providers that build and sell finished systems. Its larger business buys semiconductors, connectors, passive parts and other components from chipmakers and supplies them to factories, along with inventory and supply chain services. Its enterprise computing arm sells data center hardware, software, security and cloud services to IT resellers and managed service providers. Arrow earns money mainly on the gap between what it pays suppliers and what customers pay, plus fees for logistics and other services. Arrow was founded in 1935 in New York and is based in Centennial, Colorado.
