Outdoor Furniture & Grills to 2013 - Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends

US outdoor furniture and grill demand will increase 3.9 percent annually through 2013. Both the grill and furniture segments will match the industry’s overall pace, with grill sales supported by demand for more expensive, highly featured grills and furniture sales bolstered by solid gains in metal furniture and cushions and covers.

This study analyzes the $6 billion US outdoor furniture and grill industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 1998, 2003 and 2008, with forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by product (e.g., metal furniture, wicker & rattan furniture, plastic furniture, cushions and covers, umbrellas and hammocks, grills, patio heating products), end-use market (e.g., residential, nonresidential) and US regional market.

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 45 industry players, including WC Bradley, Weber-Stephen Products and Agio International.
