Anixter / Bosch Sells Direct to Amazon

Author: Brian Karas, Published on Jan 18, 2017

Anixter regularly says they do not sell direct to end users or that they do not do it anymore. However, over the past year, Anixter has sold Bosch video surveillance products direct to Amazon for Amazon's internal facilities, IPVM has learned.

Inside this post, we examine what is happening and the concerns the move brings, especially in light of Anixter's ongoing practice of selling direct.
