At this year’s Aftermarket Outlook, NPD’s Executive Director and Industry Analyst, Nathan Shipley, will reveal how sales in 2019 are measuring up to expectations, share insights into consumer attitudes that will shape the coming year, and provide his outlook on sales for 2020 and beyond. Insights and analysis will be derived from examining a wealth of economic trends, consumer research (including a new way to understand online purchase behavior) and product sales data, including the 2019 Consumer Outlook Survey. These survey results will once again be unveiled for the first time exclusively to AAPEX attendees.
Attendees will learn:
- How the macro U.S. retail environment is performing relative to past years
- What is trending in the e-commerce channel
- What macro factors will have the greatest influence on 2020 aftermarket sales
- Which changing consumer attitudes may represent opportunities for growth
- Expected 2020 automotive product sales performance
