This is one of a series of volumes presenting the findings of
the 1933 Census of American Business. The statistics were collected
in 1934 by a field canvass of wholesale establishments in every
State, city, and county in the United States, with funds provided
by the Federal Civil Works Administration. They cover the oper-
ations of wholesale establishments during the year 1933. -•*'
The volumes were prepared under the supervision of Fred A.
Gosnell, Chief Statistician for the Census of American Business,
by Theodore N. Beckman, in Charge of Wholesale Distribution, assist-
ed by John Albright, Administrative Assistant.

WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTION: 1933
In this report are presented statistics on wholesale trade for
the year 1933. Data are shown both by type of establishment and by kind
of business so as to set forth the essential characteristics of the whole-
sale business of the area covered by this volume. For a description of
the Wholesale Census, for definitions, explanations of terms, classifi-
cations, and United States Summary tables, and for an analysis of whole-
sale trade, see Volume I.
For census purposes a wholesale establishment is a place of
business, the primary function of which is to sell or distribute goods on
a wholesale basis. It may be in the form of a store, a wholesale ware-
house, a sales or brokerage office, or part of an office as when the
office is shared with other similar organizations. Sales at wholesale
may be made to retailers, to institutions, to industrial consumers or to
other wholesale organizations. No merchandising establishment has been
classified as "wholesale" unless fifty percent or more of its sales were
made in a wholesale manner or on a wholesale basis.
The Wholesale Census was taken on the basis of establishments
rather than companies or firms in order to facilitate the canvass and to
make it possible to present data by geographic areas. A separate report
was required for each establishment regardless of whether or not it was
owned or operated as a part of a large business organization. Wholesale
peddlers and others who sell goods at wholesale but who maintain no
regularly established places of business were not included in this census.
WHOLESALE TRADE, BY TYPE OF ORGANIZATION. —In presenting the
data for the States and for the United States as a whole, wholesale
establishments have been divided into six groups, some of which have been
further subdivided, according to the type of establishment or the nature
of the functions performed.
The first of the six functional type groups for which data are
shown is called "wholesalers proper" and consists of more or less regular
wholesalers in domestic and foreign trade who take title to the goods
they buy and sell and are largely independent in ownership. The second
division comprises "manufacturers' sales branches," consisting of whole-
sale outlets owned by manufacturers largely for the disposal of their own
8181
iCiS
goods. The third type, "bulk tank stations," consists of establishments
performing wholesale functions in the distribution of gasoline, oil and
other petroleum products. While primarily distributing their products to
retail stations, they also sell goods at wholesale to tank wagons and to
industrial users. The fourth type, "chain store warehouses," are distri-
bution stations maintained by retail chains to supply their stores with
merchandise. They carry on wholesale operations in addition to ware-
housing in that they break bulk, deliver and bill merchandise, and in
some cases exercise supervision over a chain of stores. Wholesale
commissaries, prepared- food depots which serve their own restaurants,
and distribution centers for bakery chains are also included in this
group.
The fifth division is called "assemblers and country buyers."
Their principal operation is the purchase and assembly of farm products
such as grain, cotton, tobacco and other forms of farm produce. This
group also includes cooperative marketing associations; packers and
shippers; cream stations; and independent, line, and cooperative elevators
as differentiated from terminal elevators. The sixth and last group is
called "agents and brokers," and includes auction companies, brokers,
commission merchants, export and import agents, manufacturers' agents,
selling agents, resident buyers, etc.
For each of the six type groups of wholesale establishments and
for some of the subdivisions thereof data are shown in Table 1 on the
number of establishments, both for 1953 and 1929; net sales, for 1933 and
1929; total expenses, expressed both in amounts and as a percent of net
sales; the average number of full-time employees, pay roll for all
employees and for part-time employees; and stocks on hand at the end of
the year. This information is presented for each of the States and for
each of the cities of 100,000 population and over.
WHOLESALE TRADE, BY KIND OF BUSINESS.— In addition to being
classified according to functional type, each establishment was also
classified by kind of business, on the basis of the chief line or lines
of merchandise in which it dealt. Following this basis of classification,
wholesale establishments were divided into twenty-five major kind-of-
business groups, which were further subdivided into 166 detailed kind of
business classifications according to the degree of merchandise specializ-
ation. A complete explanation of this method of classification is given
in Volume I.
Important as it is to have information for each kind of busi-
ness or line of trade in detail, it is even more significant to have such
data presented separately for each type of wholesaling organization. In
that manner the accomplishments of a wholesaler in a given lins of busi-
ness may be compared with the accomplisl.zients of all wholesalers operating
therein, while the achievements of a manufacturer's sales branch can be
8181
3
compared with those of manufacturers' sales branches in the same line of
trade. Such comparisons are of special interest to individual business
enterprises and to the student of marketing.
Basic statistics on wholesale trade for types of establishments
by kind of business are shown in two tables. Table 2A presents for each
State and for a limited number of selected cities, the number of whole-
sale establishments by kind of business, in detail, for each of nineteen
functional types of wholesale organizations. This table may be regarded
as a supplement to Table 2B which shows for each of the States and for
cities of 5,000 population and over, the number of establishments; net
sales; total expenses, expressed in amounts and as a percent of net sales;
the average number of full-time employees; pay roll, total and part-time;
and stocks on hand. This information is shown for as many kinds of busi-
ness, under each type, as possible without disclosing data for individual
establishments. More complete information on the number of establishments
by type and kind of business in detail is to be found in table 2A,
described above.
SOURCES OF RECEIPTS. — In addition to dealing in merchandise,
many wholesale establishments derive a certain amount of income from the
sale of services and from other sources. Table 3 has been devised in
order to measure quantitatively the volume of business secured through
the sale of goods and that obtained from other sources. This table is
presented for States only, by kind-of-business groups, and shows the
number of establishments in a given group; total net sales, a term used
throughout as interchangeable with receipts; total expenses, expressed
in amounts and as a percent of sales; and receipts. The last item is
broken down according to sources into sales of merchandise; receipts
from parking, storage, cleaning, etc.; receipts from space rental; and
receipts from other sources.
CREDIT BUSINESS OF WHOLESALE ESTABLISHMENTS . —The extent to
which wholesale establishments engaged in selling on a credit basis is
shown in Table 4. This information is presented for States only, by
kind-of-busines3 groups, separately for wholesalers proper and for all
other types combined. It indicates the degree to which wholesale estab-
lishments perform the functions of financing business by extending credit
to retailers, industrial consumers, and to other wholesale organizations
to which they sell. Since some of the wholesale establishments did not
operate on a credit basis and others failed to report on this item, data
related to credit sales are presented in Table 4 only for those establish-
ments for which the credit information was available. It shows the
number of establishments reporting credit and the percent which that
number constituted of the total for the kind of business under consider-
ation. The same procedure is followed in connection with net sales.
8181
In the following columns credit sales are given in amounts and as a per-
cent of sales of establishments reporting credit sales and as a percent
of sales of all establishments in a given group. The table also shows
total expenses incurred by establishments operating on a credit basis.
These expenses are given in amounts and as a percent of sales so that
comparison may be made between the costs of doing business of establish-
ments selling on credit with the costs incurred by those establishments
which presumably do not operate on a credit basis, if it can be assumed
that all or most of the establishments not reporting credit sales sold
for cash.
DISTRIBUTION OF SALES. — A common conception is that wholesalers
sell only to retailers and that wholesalers are the only type of organiz-
ation operating in the wholesale field. That this is far from the truth
is indicated by the figures shown in Table 5. The statistics therein are
presented for States only, by 25 kinds of business, separately for whole-
salers proper and for all other types combined. It shows that wholesale
establishments sell to retailers, to industrial consumers, to ultimate
or home consumers, and to other v/holesale organizations. Naturally,
there is considerable variation in the extent to which different types
of wholesale establishments make use of these outlets and the degree to
which they are used in the different kinds of business.
Here, too, not all of the establishments reported the distri-
bution of their sales, partly because of inadequate records at the time
the census was taken. The table shows for each type and kind-of-business
group the number, net sales, and total expenses of all establishments,
and then presents statistics for those establishments that reported a
distribution of sales by outlets. For these establishments it shows the
number and the percent which such number constitutes of the total for
the group under consideration. Similar treatment is given to the net
sales of establishments v/hich reported their sales by type of customers.
This is followed by total expenses for such establishments, expressed both
in amounts and as a percent of sales. Total sales are then distributed
into the following groups: sales to retailers (for resale); sales to home
consumers (at retail); sales to industrial users, including institutions;
and sales to other wholesale organizations. From these data it should
be possible, among other things, to determine the amount of duplication
in the total v/holesale sales figures, due to the fact that some wholesale
establishments sell to other wholesale organizations.
8181
EMPLOYMENT IN IVHOLESALE TRADE.— The significance of wholesale
trade as a source of employment is indicated in Table 6. In this table
the number of proprietors and firm members and the number of paid employ-
ees, divided into male and female and into full-time and part-time, are
shown for each of the 25 major kind-of-business groups. The estimate by
sex is based on the sex distribution reported for the total number of
employees as of December 30, 1933; the percent of women shown separately
relates to the same date. The table also presents the number of full-
time and part-time employees as of the 15th of each month for each kind-
of-business group, and a monthly index of employment for wholesale trade
as a whole. This information is presented for each of the States and for
cities of 500,000 population and over.
Employment is the only item in the wholesale trade statistics
which is presented on a monthly basis. It affords indirect indication
of the extent of seasonal change in wholesale activity, quite marked in
certain lines of trade. A comparison of monthly figures for 1933 with
quarterly data for 1929 suggests the extent of non-seasonal improvement
in employment conditions in the course of 1933. Part-time employment in
wholesale trade, information on which was gathered for the first time for
1933, appears to be much less important in this field than in retail
trade; it attains significant proportions in only a few kinds of business.
WHOLESALE TRADE BY SIZE OF BUSINESS UNIT.— Table 7 presents the
number of establishments, the annual average number of full-time employ-
ees, and the operating expense ratio of wholesale merchants and of manu-
facturers' sales branches with stocks*, by size-of-establishment groups,
based upon net sales. Establishments have been classified into 7 size
groups, as follows:
Group number Net sales
I Under $10,000
II $10,000 to $49,999
III $50,000 to $99,999
IV $100,000 to $199,999
V $200,000 to $499,999
VI $500,000 to $999,999
VII $1,000,000 and over
*For definition of wholesale merchants and manufacturers' sales branches
with stocks, see Volume I.
8181
This information is given by States for each of the 25 kinds
of business. The table permits a comparison by lines of trade of whole-
sale merchants (including importers) with manufacturers' sales branches
with stocks, two types of wholesale operations which, for the most part,
compete in the same market, warehouse '"oods and make deliveries from
stocks. Comparison is also possible of small and large-sized establish-
ments in a given trade as to operating costs. It shows to what extent
each size group furnishes employment in wholesale trade. It further
indicates the differences existing between trade groups and between whole-
sale merchants and manufacturers' sales branches with stocks as to average
size of establishment, as to distribution of establishments by size, and
as to operating costs.
A FEW SUGGESTED USES OF THE DATA IN THESE REPORTS. —The statis-
tics presented in these reports on wholesale trade should prove of
considerable value to individual business men, public authorities and
independent students. The breakdown by type of operation, line of trade,
and geographic areas should enable the wholesaler to compare his accom-
plishments with those of others operating on a similar basis in the same
market area. For the manufacturer planning a sales campaign the fi ures
should make possible an allocation of sales quotas and territories to
salesmen. The formulation of policies by public authorities should be
facilitated by information on the amount and nature of business done in
each locality, the employment it furnishes, and the income it distributes.
The quantitative description of the marketing wholesale structure and t f
the changes in it in the course of the memorable years, 1930 - 1933, found
in the Census volume, should serve as basic material to the analytical
student of Ame.ican economic life.
