What drove the change

  • Higher unit prices, from inflation and a push into larger packs and higher-value products, lifted sales even though volumes did not grow
  • Health and beauty and pet products grew, and new business with convenience stores and other new retailers added sales
  • Higher distribution-center fees charged by retailers squeezed the gross margin, while labor shortages pushed up staff and logistics costs

Things to watch

  • Consolidation among retailers and the entry of foreign chains could reduce the value placed on a wholesaler's logistics
  • Changes to the sales incentives that manufacturers pay could affect earnings
  • If a shrinking population makes it hard to hire and train staff, the business could be affected
