Floor Covering Stores in the US Industry Market Research Report from IBISWorld Has Been Updated
PRWeb - Wed Aug 27, 1:31PM CDT
Sales hit the floor for operators in the Floor Covering Stores industry in the past five years. Professional contractors and homeowners typically purchase industry goods during new residential construction and home renovation projects. Therefore, declines in housing starts and remodeling activity following the housing market collapse caused demand to plummet. Since 2010, however, demand conditions have slowly improved in line with a gradually strengthening economy. In 2012, housing starts increased 28.2% and are anticipated to rise another 17.3% in 2014. Consequently, in the five years to 2014, the industry has begun to slowly recover, with revenue expected to increase at an annualized rate of 0.1% to $17.9 billion, with a 2.2% jump in 2014 alone.
