The award-winning Builders Merchant Building Index report is now available in a new Executive Summary format, providing busy industry professionals with a snapshot of the month’s key data and analysis in a short, easy-to-read format.
Ideal for builders’ merchants and other construction executives who want to stay informed about the latest trends in Repair, Maintenance & Improvement building activity, the Executive Summary is available for all monthly reports.
The Summary includes ten pages of analysis and data including the latest monthly sales highlights, an overview of the month’s biggest category winners and losers, and easy-to-follow graphs which chart performance of the 12 product categories compared to previous years, quarters and months.
The full, in-depth report remains available too with over 60 pages of detailed analysis, data and charts on building industry trends. Every quarter, the reports include insights and comments from a panel of leading industry brand experts that explain trends, issues and opportunities in their markets.
Mike Rigby, CEO MRA Research who produce the reports, said: “We work in a fast-paced industry and there’s not always enough hours in the day to catch up on essential reading.
"With this in mind, we created a compact Executive Summary of each month’s main report to give time-pressed professionals the key facts and trends they need to know at a glance. It’s just another way we’re making the BMBI’s industry insights accessible to all.”
BMBI, a brand of the Builders Merchants Federation, uses data from GfK’s ground-breaking Builders Merchants Panel, which analyses sales-out data from over 80% of generalist builders’ merchants’ sales throughout Great Britain.
The trend series, first published in 2015, is a free-to-use resource which can be downloaded from the BMBI website or sent directly to subscribers every month.
The Quarter 1 Executive Summary report, published in May, is available at www.bmbi.co.uk.
