"The Industrial Distribution market remains attractive to buyers and investors," said Kevin Sargent, Managing Director and lead banker for the Industrial Distribution investment banking team at BGL. "Solid fundamentals and high business fragmentation are continuing to fuel consolidation as distributors seek growth, diversification, and greater scale, and capital providers seek to deploy capital."

The report examines key demand drivers in current growth markets seeing an uptick in M&A activity, including water and wastewater, power and electrical, industrial controls and automation, and aerospace and defense while general industrial end markets await the next wave of demand.

Key takeaways include:

  • The key growth sectors benefiting from investments to repair, upgrade, and expand aging infrastructure.

  • Where corporate and private equity buyers, investors, and lenders will seek to deploy capital in 2024.

  • The factors that are expected to spur growth and M&A activity in currently more stagnant general industrial end markets

  • The role artificial intelligence is expected to play as adoption increases, processes become more refined, and results become more impactful
