Osram Opto Semiconductors has awarded Pan-European semiconductor specialist EBV Elektronik, its 'European Distributor of the Year' award for the second time in a row. EBV received the award to honour its outstanding sales growth year-on-year.
"It is great to get this award for the second time in a row after 2004, bearing in mind that we have only had the Pan-European franchise for Osram Opto Semiconductors since 2003," says Patrick Zammit, president EBV Elektronik.
"This achievement is a great success for the whole of EBV, which has been leveraging its commercial, technical and logistical strengths. Osram is the world leader for solid-state lighting and as a result was also the fastest growing line within EBV in 2005. Our strong partnership and the huge range of new applications, especially in the area of high brightness LEDs, infrared and organic LEDs, provide tremendous growth opportunities for Osram and EBV," Zammit concludes.
"As with last year, EBV was again awarded 'European Distributor of the Year' for 2005 by Osram Opto Semiconductors. In our fiscal year 2004/2005, EBV was leading in turnover and turnover growth as well as design-in performance."
Says Michael Wohs, director distribution worldwide for Osram Opto Semiconductors: "We are very pleased with the technical performance of the EBV team as well as with their design-in capabilities. In the next year, Osram OS looks forward to again outperforming the market and continuing with sustainable and profitable growth in distribution. EBV, with its motivated sales team, is one of the cornerstones in again achieving this ambitious goal. I would like to congratulate Patrick Zammit and the whole EBV team for their enduring success with Osram OS products."
