These sales estimates were developed using Electrical Wholesaling's sales-per-employee multipliers and its estimates that electrical contractors account for 50% of the typical electrical distributor's sales and that idustrial sales accont for 75% of sales.
The sales-per-employee multipliers come from the 2024 Market Planning Guide: $78,775 per electrical contractor employee and $2,650 per industrial employee.
Employee counts and sales change data are derived from the 2023 figures for construction and industrial employment published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
