About MitchElectronics
MitchElectronics is a manufacturer and distributor of electronic kits, modules, and components located in the South of England. It was founded by Robin Mitchell in 2011 and initially specialized in custom PCBs for makers and educators.
The breakthrough for MitchElectronics came after realizing that in-house PCBs were better in quality than those provided by mainstream electronic kits from other manufacturers. From there, MitchElectronics turned its PCB production process towards in-house electronic kits resulting in high-quality, low-cost products.
MitchElectronics produces some of the industries finest quality products while providing the best price-to-quality ratio. It is MitchElectronics firm belief that the falling price of commercial electronic products should be reflected in all electronics.
