Testimonials

"The Wholesale Distribution Economic Reports provide very valuable information for application to our strategic planning process. While much of this information is available in the public domain, finding the information and then relating it in a meaningful format would be an impractical task. This is a great resource!"
- Chase D. Knight, Chairman, S&K Distributors Inc., dba Johnstone Supply

"These reports are the best source of information I've seen to get a quick snapshot of where a particular wholesaler-distributor stands relative to peers and to other wholesaler-distributors in other sub-sectors."
- Jim Miller, Managing Director, Supply Chain Equity Partners

Report Excerpt

Total revenues of wholesale distributors shrunk by -xx.x% to $x.x trillion in 2009, marking the first year of negative growth since the comparatively mild decline of -x.x% in 2001. Revenues decreased by -x.x% after adjusting for the effects of price change (inflation and deflation).

Pembroke Consulting forecasts that industry revenues will increase by xx.x% in 2010 as the economic recovery gathers steam.

This report allows you to:

  • Plan strategically for the year ahead with accurate current and forward-looking data on your wholesale distribution line of trade.
  • Benchmark your performance. Learn how much sales and sales per employee have changed in your line of trade; how much weekly earnings have changed; which distribution niches are producing the highest (and lowest) gross margins; and how many companies are competing in each of these niches. You'll see how sales, employment, and inventories have fared in your line, quarter-by-quarter.
  • Gain an advantage over your competitors by better understanding where higher-margin opportunities exist in your line of wholesale distribution.
