Catalogue distribution is going online. But what portion of the leading catalogue firms' business is now carried out via the internet?
Globally, online sales as a percentage of total sales is as follows:
Mouser 60%
Farnell 55%
RS 50%
But the numbers are even bigger in specific markets. RS does 70% of its business on the web in Japan.
Then Digi-Key uses the internet for 98% of its sales in the UK.
