Commenting, Steve Rawlins, CEO of Anglia said, “MARL International has an outstanding pedigree with LED technology, and we are delighted to extend our relationship with them. The new partnership is a win-win-win. Customers benefit further from the improved logistical support that Anglia can offer and the enhanced stock profile with which we are supporting the line, as well as our FAEs who have been trained by MARL in their technologies. Anglia adds a more comprehensive range of opto solutions to its portfolio and we increase MARL’s presence with our key customers.”
