Mouser honours its 2016 Best-in-Class award winners

Winners of the Mouser Best-in-Class Award are selected using five main criteria: promoting product lines within Mouser, partnering strategically with the Mouser team, working together to launch new products, finding creative solutions to grow Mouser and manufacturer market share, and maximising Mouser's value proposition within their own businesses.

At this year's ceremony, Mouser introduced the new President's Award and recognised three recipients. The President's Award honours the extraordinary individuals from Mouser's manufacturer partners who have won the Best-in-Class award five or more times, demonstrating consistent exemplary performance.

Glenn Smith, Mouser Electronics' President and CEO, says: "Mouser would like to thank all of the devoted professionals who won the Best-in-Class Award this year. Each of them has played an important role in helping us introduce and promote their company's products to our customers. This year's winners were chosen from hundreds of business colleagues working across our base of outstanding suppliers. I would also like to recognise those individuals who have won our Best-in-Class Award five or more times by giving them our new President's Award. This is an amazing achievement as the pool of potential winners each year is very deep."
