- Jaco Electronics Inc. engages primarily in the distribution of electronic components and flat panel display (FPD) solutions. The company offers a comprehensive product portfolio including semiconductors such as transistors, diodes, memory devices, microprocessors, microcontrollers, and integrated circuits; passive electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, and electromechanical devices including power supplies, relays, switches, connectors, and printer heads. Jaco also specializes in flat panel displays, providing high-brightness displays, touch screen displays, TFT displays, embedded systems, and associated value-added engineering services. With operations mainly focused in the United States and markets in the Far East, Jaco serves original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) across various sectors including automotive, telecommunications, medical, industrial automation, digital signage, aerospace defense, gaming, and security.
Founded in 1961 and headquartered in Hauppauge, New York, Jaco Electronics has evolved its business model to emphasize its core competency in display solutions and embedded computing. In a significant strategic shift over the past two years, the company divested its electronic components distribution business assets, focusing resources on expanding its value-added integrated display solutions and embedded systems capabilities. This move aligns with Jaco’s pursuit of growth through innovation in flat panel display technology and customized display solutions, reflecting ongoing investments in new technology and engineering services to meet diverse customer needs. The company also formed recent strategic partnerships to enhance its product offerings and service capabilities in high-growth industry segments.
Jaco’s business segments include distribution of semiconductor and passive electronic components, value-added flat panel display assemblies, embedded computing systems, and specialized engineering support for integrated display solutions. The company targets industrial OEMs, contract electronics manufacturers, and other technology-driven customers, leveraging its extensive inventory of over 45,000 stock items. Jaco’s operations are supported by a network that combines traditional distribution with engineering expertise, enabling customized, fully integrated display solutions tailored to complex market demands.
This strategic repositioning, effective since 2024, underscores Jaco Electronics’ commitment to becoming a major supplier of flat panel displays and associated technology products while expanding in the high-value embedded computing and display integration markets. The company continues to adapt to evolving industry trends by investing in advanced display technologies, including high brightness and touch screen displays, and developing solutions for emerging applications across aerospace, automotive, medical, and digital signage industries. Jaco maintains its reputation for technical proficiency, quality, and customer-centric engineering services to sustain and grow its market presence in both domestic and international arenas.
