The Woodworking Market
Solid & Strong
Woodworkers represent a cross-section of the population,
and they range from home hobbyists and handymen to
professionals in the building trade, cabinet makers,
and makers of fine furniture.
Most woodworkers have been involved in woodworking
for over 15 years. A typical woodworker averages more
than six hours per week in the
workshop, and spends between $400-500 per year on woodworking
products, equipment, and supplies. Typical Woodcraft
customers are male, with
an average age of 47. Interestingly, the number of
people who are of the age 45 and older are expected
to be increasing, according to the
US Bureau of the Census. While this increase in the
number of potential customers does not guarantee the
franchisee's growth, it is a statistic
worth noting. |
