Talking How do I find national Sales statistics

Ok so Rodney I followed your advice and came up empty. I searched for market research and billion and found a bunch of links to topic where you told people to do this lol. Does anyone know how to get ahold of at least a gross estimation of the national sales of graphic t's in America last year. I don't really care if it's accurate I just need a number and a place to quote to put in my business plan. Of course I would like it to be reasonable and based on some sort of expertise but ours is a hard market to track. Sounds like a butt ton of us are looking for this info.

Try the SBA website or your local bank lendor.
They can usually pull statistics like that up for you.

You may also want to check infomat.com. They have a lot of stats available.

I did a quick google search of graphic t-shirts billion and I saw several large companies reporting billion dollar revenues, so my guess would be that it's over 10 billion per year.

I dont know exactly what percentage of this is from graphic T's but while doing some research earlier this year i found an article with kind of what you are lookin for. The article said that american consumers spent $82 billion clothing last year, again not sure how accurate that is.
