Direct Selling Companies in the US

Operators in the Direct Selling Companies industry retail a range of products from one person to another away from a fixed retail location. The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic caused a substantial shift in the industry as mass layoffs propelled industry participation levels, resulting in heightened performance. However, intense competition from big-box retailers and e-commerce has negatively affected the industry, as competitors are able to offer a wider selection of substitute products at lower prices and in a convenient one-stop location. Nonetheless, industry revenue is expected to increase at an annualized rate of 5.3% to $65.1 billion over the five years to 2022. Industry profit is also projected to increase as revenue has outpaced the cost of labor.
