More About BDM Distribution – Distribution Done Differently
At BDM Distribution, we do more than supply scanning hardware and software — we help businesses, trade partners, resellers and end users make informed decisions when investing in digitisation technology and digital transformation solutions.
With over 30 years of experience in the scanning industry, we understand that every client, application and project has different requirements. That is why we take the time to understand the exact specification, objectives and practical needs before recommending the most appropriate solution.
We have extensive knowledge of scanning hardware, software and imaging technologies, enabling us to advise on solutions for document capture, large format scanning, archive projects, drawings, maps, plans, artwork and specialist digitisation workflows. We understand the differences between products, capabilities and applications, and use that knowledge to help clients make confident, informed decisions.
Whether you are specifying a solution for your own organisation or for your client, BDM Distribution offers tailored guidance based on your exact requirements. We do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach — we believe in recommending the right solution for the job.
We also offer free and impartial advice to all our clients. Our role is to help you make the right decisions, with the technical support and back-up you need behind you. From initial enquiry through to implementation and ongoing support, we are here to ensure your chosen solution is fit for purpose, commercially sensible and fully supported.

Distributor First and Always
As a distributor, our role is to supply products to resellers and partners, enabling them to serve their customers with confidence. We maintain a clear distinction in our operations, strictly defining ourselves as a trade-only distributor.
BDM Distribution will never sell directly to end-user customers, ensuring that our focus remains on supporting our reseller and partner network.
We are committed to safeguarding the trust placed in us, and any client information shared between resellers and BDM Distribution is handled with the utmost integrity. We guarantee that this information will never be used to compromise or undermine our valued relationships with resellers and partners.
Working Together
At BDM Distribution, our relationships with resellers and partners are founded on trust, honesty, and mutual support. We are dedicated to helping them not only grow their customer base but also develop strategies that lead to long-term success.
Our structured framework outlines the comprehensive support we provide—from product training and technical assistance to strategic guidance and market development—ensuring every partner has the tools and knowledge to thrive. Whether you are a small business or a large enterprise, we work with your best interests in mind, offering tailored support to suit your specific needs.
With BDM Distribution, you can count on a reliable partner who is committed to your success at every step.
Trust, Honest and Fairness
Our margin structure is fair, clear and even for everyone. It starts at 20% with additional margin available for resellers and partners who actively promote brands and for special projects.
We always encourage all our resellers to uphold fair and responsible pricing practices. Undercutting or excessively discounting products not only diminishes their perceived value but can also lead to an unhealthy competitive environment.
We believe that fair pricing benefits everyone; maintaining the integrity of the brand, and allowing all partners to succeed and grow together while delivering the quality and support that customers expect
Complete support
Our reseller and partnership relationships go beyond just making a sale. We offer presales advice and support across all brands, helping you understand each product and select the best fit for your customers.
We also provide direct delivery through our trusted courier network, offering tracking and flexible options to ensure peace of mind. You can further enhance your service by taking advantage of our setup, installation, and training options, giving your customers a complete experience.
Aftersales care is another area we excel in. With manufacturer-approved technical support, service and repairs, and affordable options for extended warranties and onsite support, we ensure your customers receive the highest level of ongoing care.
