  • The U.S. luggage market is currently valued at just under $4.0 billion at the manufacturers' level. Imported products now capture over 90% of the market, up from less than 80% at the beginning of the decade. For domestic producers, musical instrument cases and other specialized luggage products dominate their sales, well ahead of more traditional luggage items. What's in store for the future? See our comprehensive analysis of overall market dynamics, including our short and long-term forecasts.
  • U.S. manufacturers' sales of handbags rose by 3.6% to total $214.2 million in 2005, showing improvement for the third consecutive year. Although still dwarfed by imported goods, which dominate the U.S. marketplace, U.S.-made products are expected to continue to post gains for the foreseeable future. This report includes in-depth coverage of each major segment of the U.S. leather industry, covering sales performance, profit margins, ad spending, plant openings and closings, and much more.
  • Domestic producers make a strong showing in the miscellaneous leather goods segment, accounting for nearly half of dollar sales. This category includes items such as saddles, harnesses, dog collars and leashes, industrial leather belting, and leather novelties. U.S. manufacturers are also finding success in foreign markets, particularly Mexico, Canada, Japan, and Hong Kong. This report provides you with extensive coverage of U.S. export activity for all types of leather goods, detailed by type and by country of destination.
  • U.S. imports of leather gloves rose by 16.8% to total $315.8 million in 2004. China was by far the leading supplier, with shipments from that country valued at $231.9 million, or 73% of the total. Pakistan was a distant second with a mere 5% share, followed closely by India and Hong Kong. Higher-priced goods imported from Italy put that country in fifth place in dollar terms, despite an eighth-place ranking in terms of unit volume. This report examines import penetration in each major industry segment, including breakouts by type of product and country of origin.
  • The number of luggage and leather goods stores in the U.S. continues to decline sharply.Retail shipments of portable computers are expected to total 15.5 million units in 2006.Roughly 60% of U.S. women are now in the workforce.This report devotes particular attention to demographic and other trends that impact the industry?s bottom line.
