1Q25 MarketPulse Report

Our MarketPulse Report details the results from the 1Q25 Baird-MDM Industrial Distribution Survey that polled nearly 400 respondents — mostly distributors — about their January-March revenue performance, pricing updates, performance expectations for the current quarter and the rest of the year. It also collected a wealth of 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.
