Component distributor, TTI Europe, has opened a new office in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, as it capitalises on growth in eastern Europe. The company says it has seen an increase in development and design in the region, resulting in increased demand for interconnect, passive and electromechanical components.

Drimala commented: “The increased focus in this area will give customers a guarantee of the widest choice and availability of parts, as well as specialist technical help for their engineering teams with all their [bill of material] BoM challenges.”
