#33 In EuropeOver the five years through 2024, third-party wholesalers’ revenue is forecast to contract at a compound annual rate of 7%% to €336.1 billion. Strong economic headwinds have faced third-party wholesalers and their respective downstream markets, namely the fallout from the COVID-19 outbreak, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and crippling interest rates and price inflation. The diverse range of products supplied by third-party wholesalers has acted to reduce its vulnerability to volatile prices in commodity markets and dips in construction and manufacturing output in many European countries. The COVID-19 pandemic hit supply chains with severe disruption, sparking product shortages and rising costs associated with order fulfilment. Compliance costs are growing for wholesalers as regulations tighten on data collection, product and environmental standards. Central bankers have upped interest rates in a bid to reign in inflation, leading to substantial borrowing costs, which discourage investment in new construction projects. Revenue is anticipated to drop by 4.2% in 2024, heavily constrained by stuttering construction output in many European countries.
