AAR Expands with OTTO in APAC Region

OTTO Controls is expanding its distribution relationship with AAR Electronics to include APAC.

OTTO Controls and its distribution partner AAR Electronics, based in Wood Dale, Ill., have signed a territory agreement to expand AAR’s reach with OTTO’s electronics products into the Asia Pacific region.  

AAR, which has been representing OTTO in the Americas, will now distribute OTTO’s extensive line of electromechanical switches, grips and joysticks to the commercial and defense markets in the APAC region. The agreement leverages AAR’s international presence and market expertise to deliver a broader range of products. 

"OTTO is excited to embark on this channel expansion with our existing partner,” said Angelo Assimakopoulos, OTTO’s Director of Sales. “AAR’s ability to service the global market with our extensive aerospace control products offering is the right alignment to proliferate and grow our business in the APAC region.”

“AAR is pleased to grow our relationship with OTTO and expand our electromechanical product offering into APAC,” said Darren Spiegel, Vice President and General Manager of AAR. “Pairing AAR’s customer-centric aerospace focus with OTTO’s design expertise will drive further innovation as the industry places a growing emphasis on electrification.”
