We at MDM have rolled out our September 2025 issue of Premium Monthly — packaging last month’s Premium content into one convenient PDF. 

This issue includes six feature articles, along with our regular news roundup and Market Profile snapshot. Those articles cover the following:

• QXO’s strategic FAQ commentary and how it aligns with what the building materials distributor has previously shared
• The latest trends in warehouse cargo theft that distributors should be aware of
• A value-to-price guide for uncertain times
• Which distributors earned a spot on TIME’s 2025 “World’s Best Companies” list
• Our monthly distribution M&A roundup, which provides a breakdown of year-to-date dealmaking activity by product vertical and how the pace of M&A compares with a year earlier
• Our latest MDM Forecast that projects distribution revenues for 19 different product sectors through 2026

Besides those articles, our September issue includes:

• Our Industry Digest of the news we covered throughout the month on distributors, manufacturers, associations, service providers and more
• A Market Profile on Bearings – providing a snapshot of U.S. demand by geography and within its top end markets

All of that is now available in our September Premium Monthly report, which is now available. Premium subscribers can download it from their Premium Dashboard (or just click here), and non-subscribers can purchase it here in the MDM Store.
