Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, recently celebrated the 35th anniversary of the opening of the company's offices in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Future Electronics was founded in Montreal in 1968 by company President Robert Miller. It expanded into the United States in 1972, opening its first American office in Boston.

The Minneapolis branch was established in 1987, and its territory represents a large market for the semiconductor industry, with over $650M in spend spread across Industrial, EMS, Medical, Agriculture, Consumer, and Military customers.

"Future Electronics' commitment to inventory, best in class supply chain programs, and sales and technical resources in the field supporting our customers have contributed to the significant and steady growth that the Minneapolis branch has enjoyed," said General Manager Curt Bakken.

"Even with our recent growth, we see more opportunity to continue this trajectory by staying committed to our customers and partnering with our strong suppliers."

Robert Miller, President of Future Electronics, congratulated the Minneapolis team on their 35-year milestone, and thanked everyone for their contributions to the success of the branch.
