High Point — Furniture/Today's exclusive Bedding Distribution Report reveals 2002 bedding market share broken out by six channels.
The Top 10 bedding producers were asked to estimate 2002 retail bedding sales. Estimates were averaged and weighted to reflect the relative market share of each producer. Final distribution calculations were made from those weighted averages.
The Top Ten producers account for approximately 75% of all bedding sold in the United States.
The final distribution estimates are for industry-wide bedding sales.
Several bedding retailers sell through multiple channels. For the purposes of this survey, Select Comfort, which manufactures its own beds, was classified as a bedding specialty store. In addition to selling through its retail stores, the company also sells through direct marketing, leased departments, other retailers and the Internet.
The department store channel contains traditional department stores, as well as Sears. The "other" channel includes sales through catalogs, telemarketing, direct marketing and furniture rental stores.
