Explains Ros Kruger, general manager UK, Ireland and South Africa: "We have always enjoyed a close working relationship with Murata. We have worked to develop specific Murata programs wherever we hold the franchise, establishing shared objectives and initiatives with targets by product, application and customers. The result is that we have been very successful, achieving high sales growth levels and top distributor status. We look forward to continuing this partnership in South Africa."
Hermann Vogel, Murata's European distribution manager added: "We have presented TTI with our corporate award for two consecutive years, in recognition of their outstanding contribution to sales growth.
