Industry Sales by Quarter2012 Q1 to 2019 Q1 Bedding Industry

May 17, 2019  by Laurie Northington in bedding   

After a rocky 2018 for the Bedding industry that saw consolidation, increased internet presence and an onslaught of imports, the year ended with growth up less than 1 percent (0.8 percent). Initial first quarter estimates of $4.05 billion put 2019 Q1 sales up 1.5 percent over 2018 Q1. Compared to the previous fourth quarter of 2018, sales rebounded 15.6 percent reflecting both Bedding’s seasonality and hopefully a righting of the ship.

Bedding has struggled the last 8 quarters, and growth continues to be slow quarter over quarter.  The first quarter of this year grew 1.5 percent over the same quarter 1 in 2018. 

First quarter 2018 Bedding sales totaled $4.05 billion, up 1.5 percent over the same period last year.
