At Area51 Electronics, our people (or aliens as we call them) are our greatest strength. Our aliens come from different backgrounds and experiences, perspectives and identities – all walks of life. We believe a diverse and inclusive workplace inspires everyone to reach for the stars. We believe this mindset sparks connectivity, a greater sense of transparency, and an environment where our uniqueness is celebrated and embraced.
At Area51 Electronics, it’s not just about distributing authentic electronic parts. It’s about creating a thriving, inclusive environment, a place where our aliens are free to be their authentic selves and perform at their very best.

View SDB Status“I am proud and inspired to be on such a diverse team. Studies show that the more diverse a team is, the more creative their solutions, the greater their ability to foresee customer needs, and the more innovative their new ideas are. The benefits surely don’t stop there either, but one thing is certain, our diverse team yields better results than any individual ever could. One proverb that instantly comes to mind is this: “If you want to go fast, go alone; but if you want to go far, go together.”
