The early 2020s changed sourcing as we know it – forever. It’s become mandatory to not only put your trust in the right parachute, but also in other parachutes in case Parachute A fails you.
An electronic parts distributor can help you weave that safety net.
While giant distributors might offer vast inventories and small ones promise personal attention, finding a partner that delivers the perfect balance is rare. With 6+ decades of industry experience, we humbly suggest we’re in that rare air.
It all sprouts from a place of collaboration – from you to the manufacturer to us.
Let's explore the key factors that make Simcona Electronics (or another top electronics distributor) an ideal partner for your component sourcing.
Choosing a supply partner that fits your electronic product needs comes down to three main criteria:
“Line down” situations can cost companies thousands to millions of dollars per hour. That's why having a distributor with the right combination of capability and adaptability is vital to not just business efficiency, but also the business – period.
Since 1962, Simcona has distributed billions of electronic components, cables, and wires to U.S. buyers. We’ve built the expertise and infrastructure that can support your mission-critical projects while staying spry enough to work 1:1 with you as much as you need.
Did you know? Simcona is one of the largest USA-based distribution companies specializing in components and cables for electrical and mechanical assemblies. What that means to you is this: We’re ready to help you compete – and win – in the component-sourcing space.
Every customer at Simcona gets a designated inside and outside sales rep. This ensures you have a consistent point-of-contact with a deep understanding of your needs.
To further build a consistent supply stream, we offer blanket orders. Benefits to you include:
You can leverage our size in a literal sense, too. Our 50,000 sq. ft. distribution warehouse can help shoulder your burden of safely storing inventory in an organized way.
Don't have the manpower to keep up with evolving electronics mandates, either? We do.
Distinctions we carry include:
If your own department has to stay ready and flexible in the modern sourcing landscape, it’s fair to expect your supplier to do the same. As a second-generation company with private ownership, we’re free to respond quickly to product and industry changes.
Is undivided attention something you haven't gotten from other distributors or at the direct manufacturer level? You'll have our ear (especially if we have yours – more on that below) so that, together, we can boost your operational uptime.
No matter your electronics supply chain issue, chances are the expertise you need is one call away. Or one handshake away! In this remote era, customers still find that our on-visit visits are invaluable.
Procurement-seller relationships tend to be cookie-cutter and, ironically, similar to an assembly line. Unfortunately, your unique design, budget, and timelines probably won’t benefit from a mass-produced solution.
To make uptime and on time a consistent reality, Simcona takes a relationship-focused, “one-stop shop” approach to supplying electronic components:
Maybe even more importantly, we actually encourage communication and collaboration. Even a simple weekly update can add peace of mind to the part-sourcing process.
In the hands of Simcona, you’ll get that and much more from a variety of departments:
Whether your market is telecom, industrial, transportation, or something else, a full-service parts distributor can turn deficiency into efficiency.

When you have stringent quality standards to uphold, playing fast and loose with part sourcing might end with you putting out fires left and right. (Hopefully only figuratively, but also maybe literally.)
This is why it pays to source through a distributor that brings an army of top suppliers along for the ride.
We’ve built a base of 200+ of the world’s top manufacturers across our 63 years of experience. These numbers equal unparalleled access to the high-demand and rare components on your bill of materials.
With a broader range of suppliers in reach, you can receive negotiated discounts and terms that are tough to gain on your own. You’ll also gain peace of mind knowing that these manufacturers are the industry’s aces – not the shady online sources that sell fake or low-quality parts. And most of all, you’ll have multiple supply sources to fall back on in case one dries up.
You’re not just trying to find the best place to buy electronic components; you’re also seeking a successful long-term collaboration – or should be, at least. This is a fact of modern supply chain sourcing, no matter which top electronics distributor you settle on.
The three criteria above for vetting vendors all play off one another.
A blend of right-sized operations, commitment to real partnerships, and deep manufacturer inroads can land your company ahead of its competitors. We’re biased, yes, but we recommend partnering with a dual threat – the capabilities and connections of a major market player, with the personalized care of a boutique firm. Once you experience working with a relationship-first distributor, you’ll never look back … or down at a mess that your faulty parachute landed you in.
