The AWTS provides the only continuing official measure of annual wholesale sales, purchases, e-commerce, operating expenses, and year-end inventories. The survey represents merchant wholesalers (including manufacturer's sales branches and offices) and non-merchant wholesalers (agents, brokers, and electronic markets) required to accurately measure economic performance in the United States. The Bureau of Economic Analysis will use this information in their estimate of the gross domestic product.
