As a £1.95 billion global distributor and FTSE 100 company, serving as RS Group worldwide, we operate in 32 countries, shipping 50,000 daily orders to over 750,000 customers worldwide.
Founded in 1937 as Radiospares and floated in 1967, we are a global omni-channel solutions partner for industrial customers and suppliers. We aim to provide an unrivalled choice of industrial and electronic products, solve problems with innovative solutions and deliver best-in-class customer service making it easy to do business with us.
We operate across three regions – EMEA, the Americas and Asia Pacific. This structure allows for activities such as product and supplier management, and marketing, to be primarily run in the regions. It means we adapt more quickly to customer needs, make our offer more relevant to the local market and remove duplication of activity between the regions and the centre.
We continue to ensure that we operate a simple, customer-centric model so we can adapt quickly to changes in our marketplace.
Our market today is large, fragmented, local in nature and digitally immature. It is served by only a few international distributors, with numerous regional and local providers, who largely operate offline.
Currently we estimate the global market is valued at c.£400bn, with our estimated global market share <1%.
