Sporting Goods Wholesaling in Canada
Sporting goods wholesalers offer a range of sporting and recreational goods and accessories, including billiards equipment; pool supplies; sporting firearms and ammunition; and marine craft and equipment. The industry competes for leisure time among consumers to allocate toward sports and other recreational activities. This trend, which has constrained demand for sporting goods, has been further exacerbated by significant downstream market changes. For example, the emergence of more chain sporting goods retailers has enabled this downstream market to negotiate low-cost sporting goods prices from wholesalers, dampening revenue growth. As many sporting goods retailers have used inventory tools that measure customer demographics and inventory turnover, they have purchased small volumes of high-turnover sporting goods from wholesalers rather than bulk purchases. Still, an increasingly health-conscious population has fuelled revenue growth as demand for sporting goods equipment has increased. Revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 0.5% to $4.6 billion through the end of 2023, including a 2.6% increase in 2023 alone when profit reaches 9.7% of revenue.
