NORTH ANDOVER, MA - 5/23/12 - L-com, Inc., a designer and manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, has again named Allied Electronics as the L-com Distributor of the Year for 2011.

"Allied's overall growth of the L-com line during 2011 was once again outstanding," said Marie Walling,
L-com's Director of Sales. "Their focused sales and marketing initiatives promoting L-com products has continued to allow our partnership to flourish. Allied has teamed with L-com sales personnel to identify new opportunities at both new and existing customers in many markets."

"Their willingness to expand both our inventory position and our catalog visibility have been two of the main drivers in their continued sales growth and market share gains," said Walling.

"We are honored to receive this award from L-com," says Lee Davidson, Allied Electronics President.
