Deal Volume in the Fasteners Industry
The overall U.S. M&A market has been challenging since 2022. However, the fastener industry has demonstrated resilience, and deal activity continues to climb despite weak market conditions. While manufacturing deal volume has increased, distribution deals represent an increasingly larger share of the industry’s activity.
Fastener transactions rose to 49 in 2024, despite continued declines in overall North American M&A activity.
Distribution deals are outpacing manufacturing deals, particularly in recent quarters, as buyers seek growth through product expansion, customer reach, and recurring revenue models.
