Office Stationery Wholesaling in Canada - Industry Market Research Report
Description
Office Stationery Wholesaling in Canada
Canada's Office Stationery Wholesaling industry has struggled to remain competitive as demand for traditional office products has fallen out of favour. Demand for business forms, direct mailing supplies and print advertising has been slow to improve over the five years to 2023 due to declining purchases of paper products among individuals, retailers and corporate clients. Office stationery wholesalers have also struggled to contend with rising competition from electronic mediums and office supply superstores that increasingly purchase stationery products directly from manufacturers. Moreover, the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic has further hindered consumer confidence and forced nonessential businesses to close temporarily, hindering industry performance in 2020. As a result, IBISWorld estimates industry revenue has decreased at an annualized rate of 3.3% to $4.0 billion over the five years to 2023, including an expected decline of 2.2% in 2023 alone.
