WHOLESALE AND RETAIL TRADE INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Welcome to our first ever ‘Shaw Report’ into the Wholesale and Retail Trade (W&RT) industry which provides SME business leaders with a powerful benchmarking tool to aid their decision making.

Larger blue-chip corporates have regular access to this type of analysis from investment banking advisers. However, it is our mission to provide SME business leaders with free access to the same market intelligence in a clear, concise and easy-to-use way.

This report will help you benchmark your performance relative to your competitors in the subsector in which you operate. It will also provide you with valuable insight regarding your relative creditworthiness and attractiveness from a M&A point of view.
