StarTech was originally established in 1994 as an industrial connector distributor for Amphenol products.
The company grew steadily over the years and was eventually bought out by Hiconnex SA. In 2017 it registered as StarTech Industrial, a certified Level 1 BBBEE contributor.
Chris Brand, general manager.
“We are an Amphenol only distributor due to the quality and support of the product range,” states general manager, Chris Brand. “Our aim is to develop the market to such an extent that Amphenol will be the leading connector supplier in South Africa.
“We get involved in projects from the concept phase and assist clients with the best possible product that suits their specific requirements, both technically and financially. We aim to develop partnerships with our clients and not just be a supplier, and in so doing help them to grow their business, which ultimately results in a positive outcome for us as well.”
StarTech Industrial stocks a wide range of industrial connectors, both metal and plastic, in volume for immediate design-in and quantity supply. The industries it supplies to include rail, automation, power generation and renewables, oil and gas, mining and military/aerospace.
Gerry Lingenfelder, sales and operations manager.
The company is a solution-based provider that can assist clients from design to manufacturing, with a stockholding of general and project-based parts. Its offering includes everything from copper, RF and fibre, to RF connectors, contacts and tools.
“We purchased StarTech with the aim of growing the business and taking it to the next level,” Brand continues. “We will employ more strategic engineering staff members in the short to medium term with the aim of securing new designs and business development. Our target is to become the leading provider of connector solutions in southern Africa by 2025.”
