Hartford, CT – The “Behind the Numbers” feature in the EasyExport Insights™ Q2 2022 report, released today, cites statistics from EasyExport’s first year of operations as proof that international ecommerce is a compelling option for companies throughout the firearms industry.

The most interesting conclusions noted by EasyExport Insights include these:
  • EasyExport sellers have demonstrated that international orders of any size can be exported profitably

  • EasyExport sellers are experiencing sustained growth of international sales at rates of 25% – 200% per year, driven primarily by new relationships

  • There is significant opportunity in the international market for sellers of quality American-made firearm parts and accessories. The international market is not just about guns

  • EasyExport sellers have demonstrated that orders can be shipped successfully and reliably to the 30 largest markets using conventional carrier services

  • EasyExport sellers have seen that the key to maximizing revenues when selling internationally is to build in-country dealer networks while also selling direct-to-consumer from the United States

EasyExport Insights is the leading source of information on exports of small arms and ammunition from the United States. Using publicly available Census Bureau data, EasyExport Insights tracks exports of 22 categories of products.

Each issue also includes reports on exports of firearms and related products to 14 leading export markets. The “Behind the Numbers” column included in every issue delves into trends and noteworthy developments lurking in each issue’s data. 

EasyExport Insights introduces two changes with the current issue. First, after publishing monthly during its first two years, EasyExport Insights has switched to a quarterly publication schedule. Second, this issue’s “Behind the Numbers” feature makes a one-time departure to report only on EasyExport operating data. Future “Behind the Numbers” pieces will return to analysis of both Census Bureau and EasyExport data.

EasyExport Insights is owned and published by EasyExport.
