Electronics distributor Avnet has moved into its new corporate headquarters in Tempe, AZ, completing a relocation the company announced last year.

The 150,000-square-foot building is located at 2150 E. Warner Road within Arizona State University Research Park, near Loop 101 and Warner Road. The property previously served as GoDaddy’s corporate headquarters. Avnet purchased the building in June 2025 and at the time said it expected to relocate there in mid-2026.

The move shifts Avnet’s headquarters from its longtime location at 2211 South 47th Street in Phoenix. The global technology distributor has been headquartered in the Phoenix metro area since the late 1990s.

When announcing the purchase last year, Avnet CEO Phil Gallagher characterized the property acquisition as an investment in the Phoenix area and its technology sector, citing Arizona’s business climate as a factor in the company’s continued presence in the region.

Avnet supports customers and suppliers across the technology product lifecycle, providing electronic components distribution alongside design, supply chain and logistics services. The company operates its core Electronic Components segment alongside Farnell, its high-service electronic components distribution business.

The headquarters move follows a strong fiscal 2026 for Avnet. For the year ended June 27, the company posted $27.63 billion in sales, up 24.5% from $22.20 billion in fiscal 2025. Net income increased 39.2% to $334.4 million from $240.2 million.

An NAW member, Avnet was No. 2 on MDM’s 2026 Top Distributors List for Electronics.
