Abstract: Food wholesaling establishments have increased their sales by about one-half in the past decade. Food wholesaling has had a dynamic change in shares (percent of sales of a market by type of firm) while margins and profits as a percent of sales have remained constant. Affiliated wholesalers have increased their share of the food store market, with other wholesalers shifting sales to industrial and commercial users.
