"By enabling additional cost savings, increased efficiency and sustainability, as well as a wider variety of products that can be sold in Europe, we can accelerate progress for engineers and designers."
The cost savings and reduced environmental impact are realized when products no longer need to be shipped to US facilities for reshipment to Europe, eliminating costly shipping fees, additional time, and the environmental impact of shipping. Shipments sent within Europe will typically arrive the next day instead of several days as before.
With products no longer needing to be shipped outside of Europe, a wider range of products can be shipped, including lithium batteries, heavy automation equipment, chemicals and adhesives, solar products, and more.
Currently, approximately 30,000 SKUs are available for this program, with more being added daily. DigiKey still handles the entire transaction, meaning customers continue to enjoy world-class customer service, as DigiKey continues to oversee every order.
The company also continues to expand the diversity of its products and suppliers into new product categories with its DigiKey Marketplace, a one-stop shop for all aspects of technology innovation, including blank printed circuit boards, industrial automation, test and measurement, IoT solutions, and virtually everything related to and adjacent to technology innovation, all through a single shopping experience.
