Which manufacturers and distributors do the largest security dealers use? This SDM 100 brand-usage report details the top providers that earned their business in 2022.
Last year was one of many challenges for security dealers, including the 100 largest North American security companies ranked by their 2022 recurring monthly revenue (RMR) on the annual SDM 100 Report. Battered by supply chain woes, difficult-to-predict pricing and labor shortages, having a trusted supplier — in some cases more or different ones than in previous years — was critical to their success.
SDM asked each of the 2023 SDM 100 companies to share their top three manufacturers and top three distributors, based on volume purchased. The resulting lists featured here represent the wide variety of suppliers security companies in the installation and monitoring channel rely on to complete their projects.
