Those articles cover the following:

  • How to manage inventory like a retirement portfolio
  • MSC Industrial Supply’s new chapter marked by new executive leadership and sales efficiency
  • A deep dive into distributors’ bet on the data center market and positioning for long-term growth
  • Our research on distributors’ 2026 tech investment plans
  • A detailed analysis of Fastenal’s 4Q and full year 2025 financials
  • Our monthly MDM Forecast
  • Our monthly M&A Roundup
  • and more!

Besides those articles, our January 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 Packaging Supplies – providing a snapshot of U.S. demand by geography and within its top end markets

All of that is now available in our January 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.
