2005 Market Measure Annual Report
Home improvement industry sales in 2003 saw a dramatic increase over the previous
year, registering in at $217.3 billion, according to National Retail
Hardware Association
(NRHA) estimates.
?Each year, Do-It-Yourself Retailing publishes Market Measure, the
industry's annual report. It is is packed with statistics and in-depth
analysis, featuring a market outlook, retail D-I-Y market profile,
category rankings, top retail headlines and more.?
?This market estimate includes only sales through what we define as the primary
home improvement channel, including hardware stores, home centers and lumber
and building material outlets selling primarily to the end user. This
definition strips out retail outlets such as specialty supply outlets,
which are included in the U.S. Commerce Department?s NAICS
classification.?
?If you add sales through these outlets into the overall home
improvement market, the U.S. Commerce Department estimates its size at
around $320 billion for 2003 and approaching $360 billion in 2004.?
