Powerhouse Retailers

Casual Living's exclusive report, 2012 Powerhouse Retailers, lists 100 casual furniture retailers that are significant players within their respective markets.

This list is by no means comprehensive. Many more than the retailers listed here are strong within their communities. Companies are not ranked, but are listed alphabetically.

Casual furniture specialists, hearth and patio specialists, pool and patio specialists and garden centers qualified for the listing. Full-line furniture stores with a significant outdoor furniture business are also included. Big box retailers such as Wal-Mart, Kmart, Lowe's, Home Depot and Target are not included.

All sales figures and ranges are for total 2011 store sales, which may include revenues from the sale of products other than outdoor furniture and accessories. Where possible, the percentage of sales from outdoor furniture and accessories is reported.

All sales figures are Casual Living market research estimates. Sales estimates were derived through online surveys and telephone discussions with the companies themselves and with industry analysts and suppliers.
