About Us

Global Reach, Individual Focus

Allied Electronics was originally established in 1928 as the radio parts distribution arm of Columbia Radio Corporation. Now, as a subsidiary of Electrocomponents plc (LSE:ECM), Allied has expanded into a global market. Still focused on each individual customer, however, Allied’s tradition of excellent service, combined with 99.9% order and shipping accuracy, delivers a powerful supply chain solution to meet the most stringent customer requirements.


Personal Expertise

Allied understands that customers are more than an account number; they are people first and customers second. Allied maintains local sales offices throughout North America to offer the personal expertise of dedicated account managers on a wide range of solutions. The Allied website, thinkallied.com, offers more than 3 million products, making it a powerful tool for any engineer or purchaser.

Allied also distributes catalogs at no cost to customers who use both print and the web to place their orders.

Product Solutions

With more than 3 million products online - and more than 115,000 products featured in the Allied catalog - engineers and purchasers often look to Allied for prototyping due to its broad range of solutions from 300+ world-class suppliers. Allied’s relationship with those suppliers is a key strength in maintaining high standards in product availability. The breadth of goods offered means that Allied is able to provide solutions to a wide range of customers from all areas of industry and commerce.
