RS Named Among the Best Distributors in 2025

RS, a prominent provider of high-service product and service solutions to industrial customers, has recently received two significant accolades from Supply Chain Connect. The company secured the 13th spot in the 2025 Top 50 Authorized North American Electronics Distributors and 16th in the 2025 Top 50 Global Electronics Distributors reports.

These rankings, established by Supply Chain Connect—a respected authority in the realm of supply chain technology and business news—are designed to highlight leading distributors in North America and globally. The reports have been published since 2010, originally starting as the Top 50 Electronics Distributors report. Over the years, the scope has expanded to include various categories such as North American, European, Asia-Pacific, and women-owned distributors.
