Littelfuse Receives "Perfect Order" Award from Arrow Electronics

Chicago, June 4, 2012 –Littelfuse, Inc. (NASDAQ:LFUS), the global leader in circuit protection, announced today that it has been honored with a “Perfect Order” award from Arrow Electronics Inc. Arrow uses this annual awards program to recognize suppliers for their continued commitment to quality and superior customer service. Littelfuse received the award at the recent 2012 Electronic Distribution Show (EDS) in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Arrow is a global provider of products, services and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and enterprise computing solutions.

"We are truly honored to be recognized by a company that values customer relationships and shows the same commitment to product quality as we do,” said Gordon Hunter, President and Chief Executive Officer of Littelfuse. “We measure our success by our ability to deliver the right circuit protection technology on time, every time, and in perfect condition."
