RS Group wins distribution award from Belden for second consecutive year

RS Group is among the winners of this year’s Distributor Value Awards from Belden, a leading global supplier of specialty networking products.

Belden offers an extensive portfolio of secure connectivity devices with the industry’s most complete suite of end-to-end industrial networking solutions. This new award is the second successive year that RS has won an honour from Belden: last year, RS won an EMEA Distributor Value Award in the ‘Continuous Improvement is our Way of Life’ category; and this year RS won an award in the ‘We Reach for Greatness’ category.

On an annual basis, Belden presents its distribution awards across the major regions including EMEA, Americas and Asia Pacific with selection criteria based upon its six core values, which are represented by ‘We Succeed Through Teamwork’, ‘We Reach for Greatness’, ‘Customers Define Our Success’, ‘We Invest in Talent’, ‘Continuous Improvement is our Way of Life’ and ‘We Play to Win’.

“RS has prioritised working with us as one of its key growth suppliers,” said Ian Bullock, channel manager at Belden. “Working together across several programmes, RS has focused on ever closer collaboration to deliver breakthrough results. In addition to holding high stock availability and quick delivery to meet customer demands for our products, RS is always continually learning, examining those areas that require improvement and building upon their performance with new and innovative processes.”

Kristian Olsson, VP of automation and control at RS, said: “We are very proud to receive an EMEA Distributor Value Award from Belden – and for the second year in a row. It is a recognition of our efforts and success in our drive to deliver an even higher level of service to our suppliers and customers. It also represents a lot of hard work from both companies who through close collaboration have developed and built a strong strategic partnership.”
