Hiring and retaining the best employees is essential to the profitability of your business. Whether you need to make comparisons between your firm and others in the same market or another territory in which you seek to expand your market share, you must consider wage scales and benefits packages in order to remain competitive.

The 2010 Executive & Employee Compensation Report provides a detailed review of compensation and benefit programs for a wide range of distributors that is not available from any other source. Nearly 1,200 distributors with a combined total of 7,000 locations representing more than 30 trade associations, including MwDA and ASA, participated in this study that compares compensation levels and fringe benefit programs across firms and branches of different sizes and locations across the United States.

The statistics provide an up-to-date and invaluable tool for evaluating and planning your company’s compensation practices.

• Compare executive and employee compensation, including salaries, bonuses, commissions and perks;

• Compare compensation levels and fringe benefit packages, such as health insurance, retirement programs, employee time-off, etc.; and

• Pinpoint how your specific compensation practices compare to other distributors using the statistics provided for 23 different sales volume categories and nearly 100 different national, regional, state and metropolitan areas.

The complete results of the report are presented in two electronic volumes.

• Volume 1 (PDF format) is specific to the PHCP and PVF wholesale distribution industries. Data reflects practices at 54 different MwDA and ASA member companies, and where appropriate, the results are compared to those from the entire cross-industry sample.

• Volume 2 (Excel format) contains the entire cross-industry report so you can take full advantage of the information collected from the large sample of firms at its most detailed level. When you consider that your company competes for the best employees with ALL of the wholesaler-distributors, including PHCP and PVF, in a given market area, the value of this information becomes very clear.
