Office Supply Stores in the US - Industry Research Report

Out of office: Projected growth in consumer confidence and disposable income will boost industry revenue

Office supply stores have continued to experience challenges over the past five years. Traditional office supply stores have long been under pressure from the changing digital landscape and fierce external competition. The changing nature of how information is presented, consumed and spread has led to declining demand for many of the industry's core products. Moreover, industry operators have contended with strong pressure from discount stores, supercenters and warehouse clubs. As a result, the industry has declined at a CAGR of 2.3% to $12.4 billion over the five years to 2023, including an estimated decrease of 2.7% in 2023 alone.

This industry includes establishments that primarily sell stationery, school supplies and office supplies. Stores may also sell a combination of new computers, office equipment, furniture and supplies. This industry does not include general merchandisers or electronic retailers.
