The Online Industrial Supplies Sales industry has fared well over the past five years, despite a minor setback during the recession. Coming out of the recessionary low, the industry started to siphon sales from traditional brick-and-mortar stores, and will continue to do so through 2017. Competition within the industry will increase as companies use search engine optimization tactics to drive up traffic to their websites. External competition from mass merchandisers will threaten industry revenue, possibly hindering larger gains.

This industry sells industrial supplies primarily at the wholesale level where the majority of customers are manufacturers, contractors, warehouse operators and government entities. These products include abrasives, electrical products, tools and hydraulics. Some firms also provide industrial services. The industry does not include the online sale of industrial equipment, such as compressors, generators, power washers and scaffolding.




This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
