"FIND A DISTRIBUTOR" SERVICE 

If you're a component manufacturer looking to find new distributors for your products in the UK, the Association of Franchised Distributors of Electronic Components (afdec) can help. Our "Find-A-Distributor" service connects manufacturers anywhere in the world with distributors of all sizes throughout the UK. All you have to do is provide us with the information, and we create a "Find-A-Distributor" advertisement describing your product line that lists pertinent company facts and explains the type of distributor you are seeking. Then, we can mail your "Find-A-Distributor" advertisement to all afdec distributors in the UK, or conduct a special fax campaign for you, or put it on our web site depending on your needs. 

It's effective! 

afdec's distributor members account for nearly 90% of electronic component distribution sales in the UK ( over $2 billion annually) That means with "Find-A-Distributor" you'll reach virtually all the companies you need to, in one easy step. Plus, the contacts at our member companies are senior executives, so your advertisement will go straight to the decision makers with whom you want to do business. 

lt's Really Inexpensive ( much less than just one trip!) 

Option 1:  You pay £195 for two mailings of your advert to all our member companies in the UK 
Option 2:  We will conduct a fax campaign to all distributor members, sending faxes twice over a two month period. Cost total £250. 
Option 3:  We will put your advert in a special section of our web site being developed for the purpose. It will be carried for 3 Months. Cost total £200
