The NAED PAR^® Survey

Regarded as one of NAED's most beneficial offerings, the survey results provide benchmarks for distributors' key financial categories so you can see how you are performing against your peers. The final report offers distributors an up-to-date picture of their financial performance on operations, assets, and sales. Additional breakouts for sales volume, customer segments, number of locations and regions are also available. 

The NAED PAR Survey is now closed.
