In the latest offering out of MDM Research, our 2Q25 M&A Report is now published — available to download and purchase. Here’s the Premium link, and here’s the Store link.

2Q25 M&A Report

Starting with our 1Q25 iteration, this report now provides a breakdown of M&A activity by product category for the quarter, showing what the hottest areas of investment were. That’s accompanied by the report’s latest EBITDA trading multiples for 29 publicly-traded industrial, electrical, building supply and food distributors; our monthly M&A recaps of every deal we posted news about; and our top M&A articles from 2Q25.

Also, you’ll want to save the date for MDM’s 2025 Virtual M&A Summit, set for Dec. 3. The half-day event will be packed with dealmaking insight from distributors who have bought and sold companies, private equity firms likewise looking to buy or sell in the industry, consultants who have helped distributors of all kinds navigate the transaction process, and much more.

Premium members get complimentary access to this report and all MDM Research reports from their Premium dashboard. And remember, members of the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors receive complimentary Premium access upon activation here.

Meanwhile, non-Premium readers can still purchase them from the MDM Store.
