Abstract

Excerpts from the report Introduction: In this study, an effort was made to develop factual data that would be helpful to those who are now managing markets, in bringing about improvement in their operations, and would be useful to persons who are planning the development of new markets. About 45 wholesale markets were visited, their operations observed, and records obtained. These markets were selected to give representative samples of different types of market organizations and classifications. Markets were studied in various locations throughout the country so that local circumstances might be considered. One objective of this study is to present data on the operating expenses of markets of various types and sizes which will provide a more realistic basis than heretofore has been available for estimating these costs. Also, the necessity of having sufficient income to meet operating expenses and pay the cost of building markets is recognized, and possible sources of revenue are considered.
