In the latest offering out of MDM Research, our 1Q26 MarketPulse Report is now published — available to download and purchase. Here’s its Premium link, and here’s its MDM Store link.
1Q26 MarketPulse Report
Our MarketPulse Report details the results from the 1Q26 Baird-MDM Industrial Distribution Survey that was conducted in early April and polled approximately 300 respondents — mostly distributors — about their January-March revenue performance and pricing impacts, revenue expectations for 2Q26 and the rest of this year. The report details those survey metrics by product vertical, providing a level of market-specific business conditions and expectations you won’t find anywhere else. The report also provides a wealth of survey commentary from these respondents, segmented by product vertical.
Overall, the report provides a valuable snapshot of wholesale distribution’s economic trends during the past quarter and sentiment for the near future.
Premium members get complimentary access to this and nearly 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 this and all our other reports from the MDM Store.
