This wholesale market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global wholesale market grew from $45,672.51 billion in 2022 to $48,883.25 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The wholesale market is expected to grow to $61,529.93 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 5.9%. The wholesale market is expected to benefit from the steady economic growth forecast for many developed and developing countries. According to International Monetary Fund (IMF), the global GDP growth was 3.3% in 2020 and 3.4% in 2021. Recovering commodity prices, after a decline in the historic period is further expected to be a significant factor driving economic growth. The US economy is expected to register stable growth during the forecast period. Additionally, emerging markets are expected to continue to grow slightly faster than developed markets in the forecast period. Greater economic growth is likely to drive public and private investments, joint ventures, and foreign direct investments in the end-user markets, thereby driving the market during the forecast period. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the wholesale market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and has spread globally, including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in the manufacture and trade of non-essential goods and an overall decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of "lock down" and the outbreak having a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the wholesale market will recover from the shock over the forecast period as it is a "black swan" event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

Retail companies are increasingly working towards providing customers with a seamless shopping experience and are thus working towards integrating their brick and mortar stores with online shopping. Omnichannel retailing integrates the different methods of shopping available to consumers, such as by phone, online, or in a physical store. Retailers adopting this strategy offer customers numerous ways to purchase their products, through both online and offline channels. Thus, it is more flexible and convenient for consumers to purchase goods or services, which helps to boost sales. For example, Oasis, a UK-based fashion retailer, consolidates its e-commerce site, mobile app, and brick-and-mortar stores to provide an easier and better shopping experience. Associates working in the Oasis are provided iPads to give shoppers on-the-spot information on product availability. If an item is not in stock, the staff use their iPads to place an online order for the customer. A similar service is provided to online shoppers. If an item is unavailable online, customers can use the company’s service, wherein the retailer searches its stores for the product and ships it to the shopper. Vending machine operators are integrating gamification techniques with their vending machines to enhance the customer experience. Gamification is the process of incorporating game-playing elements to motivate people to engage with a product or service. Due to its interactive nature between the customer and the product through the vending machine, it results in a better customer experience and an overall return rate. For instance, some of the e-commerce companies using gamification in shopping include eBay with its bidding and feedback system, Nike with its "winter’s angry campaign," BestBuy’s Cityville Presence, and Zappos, following gamified culture and customer service. Nescafe set up a Nescafé Smoovlatté vending machine in Malaysia, which invited people to pose, sing, or dance in order to get a free bottle of the drink.
