FEDA Benchmarking

Benchmark your organization against industry peers and equip your team with the data needed to drive more informed decisions.

Top companies rely on benchmarking to understand where they excel and where opportunities exist. The FEDA Profit Survey is the industry’s most comprehensive resource for foodservice equipment and supplies distributors who want to measure their overall operating performance against their peers — and there’s still time to participate in this year’s report! If your company has not yet submitted data, now is the time to take advantage of this complimentary member benefit. Please submit your data by the July 3 deadline. By participating, you'll receive access to industry-specific benchmarking data covering profitability, margins, staffing, expenses, and other key metrics. The results provide distributor leaders with the information needed to evaluate their organization’s strengths, uncover opportunities, and make more informed business decisions based on real industry data.

FEDA’s new survey provider, Dynamic Benchmarking, simplifies the submission process and allows multiple team members to collaborate securely. Individual company data is never shared, and results are reported only in aggregate, ensuring complete confidentiality while providing meaningful industry comparisons.

The deadline to submit your data is July 3, 2026. Don't miss the opportunity to be included in this year's benchmarking results and gain access to the industry's most valuable source of competitive intelligence. Company administrators of FEDA distributor members have received login information via email, and FEDA is happy to resend the credentials or add additional users to your account. For account assistance or to ask any questions, please contact Isabelle Piotrowski, Director of Membership and Business Development, at isabelle@feda.com.

How does your company’s profitability, margins, and operating performance compare with those of other distributors? Later today, the 2026 FEDA Profit Survey will open, helping you answer those questions with real-time benchmarking data designed specifically for the foodservice equipment and supplies industry.

All FEDA distributor members are invited to participate in the survey at no cost. Company administrators will soon receive an email with login information and data collection instructions. The deadline to complete this confidential survey is July 3, 2026.

In partnership with Dynamic Benchmarking, data collection for this year’s survey is hosted on a new streamlined, secure online platform that delivers more meaningful, actionable insights. As soon as you submit your organization’s data, you will gain immediate access to key performance indicators (KPIs), interactive dashboards, and customizable reports that make it easier to evaluate company performance and identify opportunities for improvement. Rather than relying on static reports alone, you’ll be able to compare metrics such as margins, expenses, and profitability against peers by company size or region in real time. Final benchmarking reports and expanded analysis will be available in July.

Confidentiality remains a top priority. All data is securely managed through Dynamic Benchmarking’s platform, ensuring that individual company information is protected and reported only in aggregated, anonymous formats.

Your participation is essential. The more distributor companies that take part in this year’s survey, the stronger and more valuable the benchmarking data becomes for the entire industry.
