      Overview

      The US tire wholesaler industry includes about 1,200 companies with combined annual revenue of about $25 billion. Major companies include American Tire Distributors and TBC Corporation. The industry is concentrated: the 50 largest companies generate about 70 percent of revenue.

      Sample Questions & Answers

      How sharply would the company be affected if it lost its main supplier?

      How does the company protect itself from higher fuel costs?

      Because they distribute a heavy product with a fairly low profit margin, tire wholesalers are vulnerable to increases in fuel costs, as prices for gas or diesel can increase 50 percent within a year. If higher delivery costs are passed to customers,...

          What strategies does the firm use to protect against slowdowns in construction activity?

              Competitive Landscape Brief

              Demand depends heavily on the health of the US economy, including corporate profits and local government budgets. The profitability of individual companies depends on accurate project bids and efficient operations. Large companies have advantages in their ability to engage in multiple projects simultaneously and in many types of construction. Small companies can compete effectively by specializing, working in a limited geography, or serving as subcontractors on larger projects. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is more than $350,000. The commercial construction industry is intensely competitive, with companies ranging from small private firms to multi-billion dollar companies. Barriers to entry are low, since large upfront capital expenditures are not necessary. Most companies work locally, but large firms work nationally and some, internationally. The largest firms can have up to 75 percent of their projects outside the US, and must therefore establish offices in countries where demand or regulations require a business presence.
