The US retail sporting goods
industry includes about 20,000 companies with
combined annual revenue of about $35 billion.
The 50 largest companies account for about 55
percent of revenue.
Only about 170 companies have more than five
stores, which leaves plenty of room for online
stores to grow and flourish.
The sporting goods industry involves companies
that sell, manufacture and distribute sporting
and athletic products in popular categories such
as: Baseball, Basketball, Boating, Bowling,
Boxing, Camping, Canoeing, Fishing, Football,
Hockey, Soccer, Softball, Tennis and Volleyball
among other sporting goods.
Sporting goods used for team sports, exercise
products and gym equipment make up the majority
of sales in this industry that contribute to
revenue. |

In the sporting goods industry, demand is driven
by popular trends and the income of consumers.
Manufacturers focus on producing high quality
products that will attract different consumer
markets while the reseller markets and sells the
products to the consumer.
And despite the competition online, sporting
goods e-retailers have continued to benefit from
their ability to offer consumers specific
brands, high quality products and convenience
shopping as well.
“The sales also support our belief that
Americans depend on the outdoors for healthy
lifestyles and will always spend money and time
on outdoor pursuits.” Frank Hugelmeyer,
president of Outdoor Industry Association. |
