Paper Wholesaling in the US

Falling to pieces: Import competition and wholesale bypass leave revenue in tatters
Piece Goods, Notions & Other Apparel Wholesaling in the US
Falling to pieces: To say that the Piece Goods, Notions and Other Apparel Wholesaling industry has declined over the five years to 2011 would be an understatement. Rising import penetration has displaced the downstream demand for buttons, zippers and yard fabric from domestic distributors to international manufacturers. Additionally, wholesale bypass, which is the trend of downstream buyers sourcing directly from manufacturers to cut expenses, has constrained wholesalers' function in the domestic supply chain and eliminated many operators.
Firms in this industry wholesale a range of piece goods, fabrics, yarns, thread and other notions and hair accessories. Products sold in this industry include apparel trimmings, belts and buckles, textile fabrics, textile labels, millinery supplies, sewing needles, remnants, ribbons, sewing accessories and zippers. Establishments who buy fabric goods in the grey, have them finished on a contract basis and sell at wholesale are classified in other industries.
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.
