2015 COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE FOR WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTION Overview ABOUT THE DATA IN THIS REPORT Modern Distribution Management compiles the data included in this report from a number of sources, including public databases, private/ proprietary databases and company-provided information. These numbers represent different aspects of the wholesale distribution industry and, as a result, are not necessarily directly comparable. The size of the wholesale distribution industry is based on sales data provided to the U.S. government from businesses that sell to retailers, contractors or other types of businesses, but not to the general public in any significant amount. It excludes revenue from manufacturers sales branches and offices. (Source: 2015 Economic Benchmarks for Wholesale Distribution) Market size estimates, as provided in the sector breakouts, are based on end-user consumption for a selection of product categories, primarily consumable products which vary by sector. These product categories are defined on page 52 and in the individual sector breakouts. These figures are inclusive of all sales channels, not limited to wholesale distribution. (Source: MDM Analytics) While these numbers may overlap, they are not directly comparable because of differences in product definitions and sales channels, as shown in the figure below.

About 2015 COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE FOR WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTION About This Report Due to slight variations in product groups included, as well as updates to the U.S. government database, data previously published by MDM on the size of the MRO market are not directly comparable to the data in this report. Market size estimates use MDM Analytics proprietary predictive modeling, which starts with a public aggregate market size estimate by product category for a given geography. MDM Analytics then uses a combination of public and private databases to allocate estimated demand to deeper geographic levels and to specific customer segments, as defined by the 6-digit North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). This approach provides a total market size estimate without regard to market channels. All estimates in this report are in U.S. dollars and represent the end-user market demand that includes an estimated average distributor margin by product category in the calculations. MDM Analytics is the data division of Modern Distribution Management. Both are owned by Gale Media, Inc. About MDM Market Leaders /marketleaders The MDM Market Leaders includes lists of the top distributors in 15 sectors. The 2015 lists are ranked in order of 2014 revenue size alone; no other factors were used to compile these lists. These lists reflect North American revenues where they are clearly broken out by the global distributors. For specific sectors, such as jan-san or safety, where applicable, the revenue shown is just for those segments if that breakout is available. About the 2015 Distribution Trends Special Issue /2015-Distribution-Trends-Special-Issue The 2015 Wholesale Distribution Trends Special Issue was researched and written by MDM editors based on interviews with dozens of wholesaler-distributors, as well as industry experts and manufacturers. MDM also conducted a survey of its readers to uncover the trends outlined in this report. About the 2015 Economic Benchmarks for Wholesale Distribution /EBWD The MDM Economic Benchmarks for Wholesale Distribution is the best source for accurate statistics on the distribution industry, including segment and overall industry revenue trends, inventory levels, 2015-2016 sales forecasts and other critical benchmark data on distribution.
