          Competitive Landscape Brief

          Demand depends heavily on US manufacturing activity. Profitability depends on product selection and efficient operations. Large companies have economies of scale in advertising and sales programs. Small companies can compete effectively by specializing in particular industries, end-use applications, or geographical areas, and by offering special services. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is about $530,000. Imports are an important source of product for industrial machinery wholesalers. Major sources of imports are Germany, Japan, China, and Canada.
