As reported in the October issue of Print Professional, total annual sales figures for the top 100 manufacturers took a small leap from those listed in 2008. Would the industry's leading distributors see the same fate? Not quite.
Total annual sales figures for the top 100 distributors took a slight dip from last year's finish of $3.5 billion. However, this year's participants still put forth an admirable showing of $3.4 billion total combined sales. And as a reminder, $3.4 billion is still an improvement from 2007 figures of $3.2 billion. So while everyone may have had high hopes of conquering adversity, in the form of a daunting economy, it doesn't seem too unlikely that a steadily increasing course will resume next year.
