The TV and appliance wholesaling industry has endured a turbulent period recently, shaped by unpredictable economic conditions and shifting consumer priorities. While elevated levels of inflation and interest rates persist, consumers have seen their purchasing power diminish, despite modest GDP growth and rising disposable income during the current period. However, a weakening labor market and eroding consumer confidence have caused buyers to delay big-ticket purchases, prioritizing essential goods over discretionary items like new appliances. Wholesalers have faced consistent pressure from higher import costs resulting from unpredictable trade policies and changing consumer sentiment. As a result, revenue has dipped at a CAGR of 0.1% over the past five years to $153.2 billion, including a 1.2% slump in 2025 alone. The initial optimism of the post-pandemic period in 2021 saw a short-lived boom as consumers splurged on home upgrades, technology and kitchen appliances during lockdowns. However, as inflation soared and global trade tensions reigned, the momentum stalled, forcing wholesalers to adapt business strategies. Supply chain disruptions, electronic component shortages and shifting retail models, such as the rise of direct-to-consumer sales, further complicated matters, causing wholesalers to face tougher competition and thinner margins. Even so, through industry consolidation and changes in traditional wholesaling practices, large wholesalers were able to secure their placement in the modern supply chain, while smaller wholesalers were forced to create partnerships or exit the industry. The future promises both new hurdles and areas of opportunity for TV and appliance wholesalers. With the potential for interest rate cuts and a recovering housing market, demand for new applications may rebound as real estate activity increases. Sustainability will become increasingly important as consumers seek energy savings and reduce their carbon footprint, pushing wholesalers toward eco-friendly, grid-connected products. Wholesalers that invest in digital platforms, AR-enabled product catalogs and warehouse automation will gain a competitive edge as technology continues to evolve both sales and logistics. Heightened vertical integration and reshoring may enhance supply reliability, but will also raise costs and generate logistical challenges. However, competition from online retailers and the wholesale bypass will continue to constrain growth, leading revenue to rise slowly at an estimated CAGR of 1.0% to $160.9 billion by 2030. Ultimately, wholesalers that embrace innovation and strategic partnerships will be best positioned to compete, but external pressures will minimize growth.

Wholesalers have faced significant volatility in recent years. Distributors have largely benefited from shifts in consumer behavior that favor, with many increasingly prioritizing their health. This, in turn, pushed more consumers to gyms, fitness centers, sports and at-home workouts, supporting demand for new equipment from diverse outlets. Similarly, niche sports, such as cycling and hunting, have become more popular in recent years, supporting wholesalers distributing niche sporting products. As a result, revenue has been rising at an estimated CAGR of 3.8% to $78.7 billion through 2025, including a 1.8% jump that year alone. Wholesalers' strong relationships with small, specialty retailers have enabled industry revenue to climb during the current period. Although disposable income and consumers’ confidence in the future of the economy has fluctuated significantly in recent years, the rising popularity of physical activity has supported revenue gains. However, wholesalers are threatened by the growing trend of bypassing the intermediaries, as manufacturers selling directly to retailers and consumers enhance price competition and place downward pressure on profit. Schools, community organizations and other large buyers of sports equipment are more likely to look toward wholesale bypass as tightening budgets and inflation create more pressure to reduce costs. Vertical integration trends, including major producers establishing their retail outlets, have harmed the need for distributors. Larger wholesalers have been able to compete with wholesale bypass by providing a wider range of products and specialty products. Demand for sporting goods will continue growing in the coming years. Rising consumer confidence, driven by falling inflation and growing disposable income, is forecast to climb participation in sports, supporting the need for wholesalers. Similarly, improving economic conditions and an increasingly health-conscious population will continue to drive demand for gyms and fitness clubs, driving demand for workout equipment. However, manufacturers directly serving downstream buyers will continue threatening wholesalers despite smaller retailers continuing to rely on distribution to restock inventory. These trends will cause revenue to rise at an estimated CAGR of 1.7% to $85.6 billion through 2030.

The performance of the hospitality sector, consumer spending habits and supermarket demand are the key factors affecting the Grocery Wholesaling industry. Over the five years through 2024-25, revenue is forecast to grow at a compound annual rate of 2% to £44.2 billion, including an anticipated hike of 0.7% in 2024-25. Inflation has played a big role in the industry’s recent performance. Food prices reached record highs in March 2023, with the Office for National Statistics reporting they climbed by 19.3% over the year, primarily due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Consumers responded to sky-high prices by trading down and eating out less, denting sales to supermarkets and hospitality venues; still, rising prices kept revenue growing. Food inflation has since fallen considerably, paving the way for growth in consumer confidence. However, food prices rose by 3.3% in the year to January 2025. While this is much lower than the peak in March 2023, food inflation had been trending downward in previous months (October to December 2024). High prices have limited sales volumes and increased the rate of wholesale bypass. Revenue is slated to swell at a compound annual rate of 2% over the five years through 2029-30 to £48.7 billion. As inflation stabilises, pressure on household finances will ease and boost consumer confidence. According to the Bank of England's projections in February 2025, inflation will rise to 3.7% at the end of Q3 2025, before easing slowly back to its target 2% in Q4 2027. This recovery will raise grocery sales, particularly in the hospitality sector. At the same time, consumers will trade up to higher-priced, healthier and sustainably sourced products, boosting revenue and profit. However, threats remain; wholesale bypass, the rise of farmers markets and rising demand for fresh, healthy products will continue to present challenges to grocery wholesalers, eating into sales. Upcoming hikes in the National Living Wage and employers’ National Insurance contributions are set to drive up wholesalers’ costs, hindering profitability.

Volatile economic conditions have impacted jewelry and watch wholesalers in recent years. Elevated economic uncertainty, including weaker disposable income, growing unemployment and high consumer uncertainty, makes consumers more likely to postpone big-ticket purchases, including jewelry. Similarly, rising inflation placed downward pressure on consumers’ disposable income, further discouraging premium purchases. These unfavorable macroeconomic conditions have caused sales volume to weaken, although rising commodity prices have offset many of these losses. When economic conditions are uncertain, many consumers and investors aim to protect their resources through safe haven investments, such as purchasing valuable metals like gold and silver. This jump in demand led to skyrocketing metal prices, making jewelry more expensive to buyers. As a result, these rising costs have pushed distributors to charge higher prices, supporting revenue gains. However, many wholesalers have been unable to entirely pass down cost increases to customers, resulting in shrinking profit. Revenue is set to climb at an estimated CAGR of 3.4% to $59.0 billion through the end of 2025, including a 0.1% loss that year alone. Distributors have largely benefited from the globalized nature of the industry, with importing wholesalers strongly contributing to the jewelry supply chain. Distributors carrying imported pieces have also benefited from a strong dollar, making imported pieces comparatively more affordable. Despite this, disrupted supply chains, tariffs on imported goods and sanctions on conflict inputs continue to push purchase costs higher. The ongoing economic recovery is likely to benefit wholesalers. As disposable income rises and consumers become more confident about the future of the economy, demand for new jewelry and watches is forecast to continue climbing. Similarly, stabilizing economic conditions are forecast to result in falling precious metal prices, which, in turn, will lower jewelry prices and support revenue gains. During this time, distributors will curate their product offerings to appeal to growing markets, including consumers looking for more sustainable or affordable alternatives. These trends will cause revenue to strengthen at an estimated CAGR of 1.4% to $63.1 billion through 2030.
