Additional survey results revealed that in 2011 the aggregate number of employees increased 3.5%. In 2010, the number of employees rose 1.8%.
Stevens presented the survey findings at the 2012 BSA Annual Convention April 29-May 1 at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa in Bonita Springs, Florida. Complete survey reports are sent to all participants. The BSA Distributor Survey is facilitated by the Profit Planning Group to assure complete confidentiality.
In another industry update, Pete Eich, President of NTN Bearing Corporation of America and the chairman of ABMA, presented the industry report of the American Bearing Manufacturers Association (ABMA). Per his report, in 2009 the Fredonia Group estimated the world bearing market to be $50.5 billion. By 2011, some estimates put the market as high as $60 billion. This number includes both rolling bearings and plain bearings. The majority of usage is in the Asia/Pacific Region at 50%, followed by Europe at 26% and North America with 17%.
Both reports are highlights of every BSA Annual Convention. The 2013 event is planned for May 5 – 7 at the Westin Hilton Head Island Resort and Spa on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.
