Novel renaissance: Physical books are popular again, helping online retailers thrive

Despite a potentially challenging retail landscape, the Online Book Retailers industry has recorded a strong performance. This success can be attributed to the rise in internet access, which has changed consumers' spending habits towards online retail. Online book retailers have offered a broader range of titles and more competitive prices than traditional bricks-and-mortar stores because of their vast supply networks and lower fixed costs. Larger online book retailers have enjoyed healthy profit margins.

Companies in this industry retail print books through online platforms. Online sales from stores with a bricks-and-mortar presence are not included in the industry. The retailing of e-books, audiobooks and second-hand books does not fall under this industry.

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.
