Speedboard Assembly Services has presented a top supplier award to NCAB.
The award was presented in recognition of NCAB’s professionalism, their outstanding relationship management, and the extraordinary service they provide to Speedboard.
The NCAB Group is a leading global distributor of printed circuits boards and has been Speedboard’s preferred supplier for over six years.

NCAB’s strapline is that they believe they “can offer PCBs on time with zero defects and at the lowest total cost.” These factors are important to Speedboard, along with having a close partnership with NCAB.
Neil Owen, Speedboard’s managing director comments, “The strategic importance of supplier relationships cannot be underestimated. Strong supplier relationships, enhanced by mutual understanding of each other’s business and operating models, can deliver competitive advantages to both parties. I’d like to thank NCAB for their unwavering professionalism. Their commitment to excellence, innovation and collaboration are crucial to our mutual success.”
Howard Goff, NCAB Group UK Ltd’s managing director says: “NCAB is a value-based company, we believe that it is crucial to build strong relationships with the customers we work and interact with. We take a transparent and honest approach which in turn builds honesty, loyalty and trust. We are delighted to receive this award from Speedboard in recognition of our strong partnership.”
