Computer manufacturers have faced notable volatility through the current period, demanding strategic agility and technological foresight. Amid the backdrop of aggressive competition from abroad, particularly in Asia, domestic computer manufacturers are pivoting towards states like Arizona, where technology-friendly business climates offer tax incentives and robust support for innovation, reducing operating costs and fostering product development. In particular, the CHIPS and Science Act has supported the development of domestic supply chains, giving companies a wider range of potential suppliers. Most notably, the development of cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other high-powered processing has driven demand, particularly for servers and host computers. Data centers have rapidly proliferated across the US and internationally, creating robust growth opportunities in the latter half of the current period. Overall, revenue has surged at an expected CAGR of 9.4% to $16.1 billion through the current period, despite faltering 0.8% in 2025, where profit reached 6.6% of revenue. Computer manufacturers have increasingly looked beyond computer hardware amid robust international competition and overwhelming import penetration. The shift towards offering comprehensive IT solutions, including high-end servers, cloud computing services and specialized software, outlines a diversification strategy aimed at tapping into higher-margin segments. This strategy represents a strategic realignment towards sectors where domestic manufacturers can leverage their technological edge and deep industry expertise. Packaging these additional services along with computers can help differentiate from competitors. Supply chain disruptions have also highlighted the importance of strong supplier relationships. Computer manufacturers are entirely reliant on suppliers to produce critical hardware components, like processors and storage systems, which are central to product differentiation and replacement cycles. These suppliers' innovation cycles and potential supply chain disruptions influence manufacturers' competitive positioning and profitability. Strategic partnerships and heavily forward-looking procurement strategies have emerged as indispensable tools for navigating rapidly evolving market conditions with a focus on hardware capable of properly using AI and other advanced systems. Tariffs will also have a pronounced impact on the industry, forcing companies to reevaluate supply chains and production capacity. While most policies are uncertain, companies have started to develop strategic storages and invest in ancillary production capacities. Overall, revenue will climb at an estimated CAGR of 0.1% to $16.1 billion through the outlook period. Profit will settle at 6.4% of revenue.
The overall market leader in the global personal computer market in 2023 was Lenovo with a market share of 25.5 percent with HP Inc. in at second with a 21.6 percent share. In terms of unit shipments, Lenovo recorded 62.5 million, while HP Inc. had around 53.03 million.

The computer and peripheral equipment wholesale industry is navigating a challenging landscape as it adjusts to shifting consumer preferences and market dynamics. The sector has experienced a downturn, with revenue projected to decline at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.6% to $403.8 billion, with a decrease of 0.6% in 2024. This decline is largely driven by an increasing tendency among corporate and household customers to bypass traditional wholesale channels, opting instead for direct purchases from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and software developers. Additionally, the rise in remote and hybrid work environments has reduced the demand for in-office computer peripherals and packaged software, with less wear and tear leading to lower replacement and repair needs. Over the past five years, the industry's performance has mirrored these evolving trends, highlighting the need for wholesalers to quickly adapt to rapidly changing customer demands. Despite a shrinking revenue base, a stable profit for wholesalers means that many are maintaining profitability through operational efficiencies and cost management. However, the persistent shift away from desktops to more modern devices, such as laptops and smartphones, necessitates a recalibration of inventory strategies to meet changing consumer demands. As wholesalers contend with these downward pressures, maintaining revenue will increasingly rely on optimizing operations and building customer support systems that differentiate them from retailers and OEMs. Looking towards 2024 through 2029, the outlook remains subdued, with the prospect of revenue continuing its decline at a CAGR of 0.4%, reducing the industry's valuation to $395.6 billion by 2029. Direct-to-consumer sales are anticipated to grow, continuing to siphon off demand typically addressed by wholesalers. The increasing preference for integrated devices will further diminish the need for traditional peripherals. Falling raw material prices, including metals and crude oil, are expected to reduce product and transportation costs, ultimately lowering the prices charged by wholesalers and exerting additional pressure on revenue.

Computer stores are undergoing a significant transformation, shaped by the rapid rise of e-commerce and evolving consumer preferences. In 2025, the industry is projected to generate $39.6 billion in revenue, reflecting a modest 0.4% CAGR expansion, including a projected increase of 0.7% in 2025. Traditional brick-and-mortar retailers face mounting competition from direct-to-consumer channels and major online platforms, which offer greater convenience and selection. This shift is forcing stores to adapt by investing in digital capabilities, value-added services and unique in-store experiences. At the same time, supply chain uncertainties, such as tariffs on Chinese imports, require agile inventory and pricing strategies. Structurally, the industry is marked by intense competition, with manufacturers and online giants increasingly bypassing traditional retailers. The market is also being reshaped by changing consumer demands, as laptops and high-performance portable devices outpace desktops, driven by trends in remote work, gaming and digital learning. Retailers must now prioritize stocking the latest devices, invest in knowledgeable staff and offer interactive experiences to maintain market share. The emergence of AI-powered PCs is poised to further redefine the competitive landscape, as consumers seek smarter, more adaptive technology. Retailers are responding by enhancing customer education, offering exclusive products and developing robust omnichannel models that blend in-store and online experiences. Looking ahead, the industry’s outlook is cautiously optimistic, with a projected CAGR of 0.6% and anticipated revenues reaching $40.8 billion by 2030. Retailers will increasingly adopt omnichannel strategies, invest in digital infrastructure and experiment with new service models to meet evolving customer expectations. Economic growth is expected to drive higher consumer spending on computers and related products, presenting opportunities for increased revenue and profit through upselling and premium offerings. Additionally, sustainability and circular-economy initiatives, such as buy-back programs and upcycling, will become central to retail strategies, helping stores differentiate themselves and build lasting customer loyalty in an increasingly competitive and environmentally conscious market.
