The American Supply Association's 2025 Operating Performance Report (OPR) Is Now Open for Data Submission!

ASA’s OPR stands as an indispensable resource, delivering extensive insights into the industry's performance metrics and operational benchmarks.

Last year’s study (based on 2023 data) unearthed pivotal data, illuminating prevailing market trends, and equipping participants with the knowledge needed to forge ahead with confidence.

After years of remarkable double-digit sales growth in 2021 and 2022, the industry experienced a more tempered pace in 2023 as companies navigated a complex economic landscape. While inflation and higher interest rates have created headwinds, some sectors of the industry managed to sustain sales growth:

• Plumbing Supply Firms saw a 0.3% decline in 2023 after a 15.3% gain in 2022.
• PVF Firms grew 7.0% in 2023, down from 29.9% in 2022.
• Plumbing Supply & PVF Firms increased 1.0% in 2023, compared to 15.3% in 2022.
• HVAC & Other Firms rose 1.9% in 2023, following a 15.8% increase in 2022.

As we gear up for the 2025 study, ASA is asking for your participation.

Your data is crucial for crafting a report that not only mirrors the industry's current landscape but also serves as a valuable instrument for your strategic planning endeavors. This is a unique opportunity to benchmark against peers, identify areas for improvement, and set a course for future success.
