Since 1935, BDI has grown from a single location in Cleveland, Ohio to serving manufacturing and industrial customers in 12 countries with 200+ locations. Starting as Bearing Distributors, Inc serving the steel mills in Cleveland, Ohio, the name was changed to BDI to better reflect the expansion from only bearings into mechanical power transmission products and value-added services. The mission remains the same, building on our strong branch system to help manufacturers get the most out of their maintenance spend.
