*| Disclosed herein is the latest information after the finalized amalgamation with Future Electronics in 2024, due to which there is a significant increase in the numbers of operating sites, markets, customers and vendors.
Founded in 1993, WT is a leading professional service provider focusing on the global semiconductor distribution. By providing the most professional supply chain management services to both vendors and customers, we have successfully positioned WT as a pivotal link between our upstream and downstream partners in the semiconductor sector. We aim to co-define the product marketing strategies with the upstream vendors, accelerate R&D pipeline for the downstream customers, and persistently strengthen our capability to deliver value-added services throughout the supply chain. The electronic components WT deals are widely used in various applications such as communications, computers and peripherals, data centers, consumer electronics, industrial control, the Internet of Things (IoT), and automobiles.
WT achieved a global presence by expanding its operations from Asia to the Americas, Europe, and other regions after the acquisition of Future Electronics in Q2 2024. The subsequent surge in the numbers of operating sites, vendors, and customers increases WT’s opportunity of higher revenue and profits. More diversified operating areas, vendors, and customers also reduce the risk of operational concentration and improve the stability of profits.
WT undertakes sales and support services for vendors, and provides downstream customers with market intelligence and technical support for product application to help shorten the time-to-market. We, as distributors, also need to actively strive to expand our authorized territories and enhance our international competitiveness by setting up more overseas offices and warehouse facilities so as to effectively provide logistics, technical supports, and other services to our customers, who are expanding their production to new locations.
