Industry Research Reports

Our core collection of Industry Research reports uses standardized industry coding systems developed at the government level, allowing for the same breadth of information across the following Geographies:

Using reputable public and non-public sources, along with proprietary data forecasting models and data manipulation methods, we compile 30 to 40 pages of valuable industry facts, charts and analysis.

What do our Industry Research reports cover?


IBISWorld’s core Industry Research reports are the most comprehensive on the market, with a wider breadth of coverage than any of our competitors.

Our in-house analysts leverage economic, demographic and market data, then add analytical and forward-looking insight to help you unpack the numbers.

Check out our Industry Reports article for a breakdown of all the chapters and sections included in our reports.

Specialized Industry Research Reports

For industries that fall outside of standard coding systems, IBISWorld has developed Specialized Industry Research reports.

Specialized Industry Research reports are available for the following countries:

  • Australia

  • United States

  • United Kingdom

What do our Specialized Industry Research reports cover?

Like the reports in our core collection, Specialized Industry Research reports contain 30 to 40 pages of valuable industry facts, charts and analysis. The format is virtually the same, making Specialized Industry Research reports just as comprehensive.

What are On Demand titles?

While most of our Specialized Industry Research reports are available now, we also offer On Demand titles, which are only written upon request. Specialized Industry Research reports purchased On Demand are delivered within five business days.

Industry Spotlight Reports

All of our Industry Spotlight titles are offered in a shorter format that features more charts, tables and graphs than text or analysis. Spanning 10 to 20 pages, these reports are full of industry data, which is then unpacked in bite-sized analysis in paragraph form that builds context around the numbers.

What do our EU Industry Spotlight reports cover?

EU Industry Spotlight reports come in two different versions. On a broader level, we offer Pan-European reports that cover Europe as a singular market. Within these reports, we offer snapshot data for up to 22 countries, including:

  • Austria

  • Belgium

  • Bulgaria

  • Croatia

  • Cyprus

  • Czechia

  • Denmark

  • Estonia

  • Finland

  • Greece

  • Hungary

  • Latvia

  • Lithuania

  • Luxembourg

  • Malta

  • Netherlands

  • Poland

  • Portugal

  • Romania

  • Slovakia

  • Slovenia

  • Sweden

In addition to our Pan-Europe titles, we also offer Industry Spotlight Reports for the following countries:

Both the Pan-Europe and country-specific EU Industry Spotlight reports offer a wide breadth of information at a high level. These reports are much leaner than our Industry Research reports, containing 10 to 20 pages of charts, tables and bite-sized analysis.


To get more familiar with our EU titles, you can download one of the EU Industry Spotlight reports or request a demo with an IBISWorld representative to see how EU reports fit within our broader suite of industry research tools.

What do our US Industry Spotlight reports cover?

Spotlight titles for the United States are shortened versions of our core reports. Like our Specialized Industry Research reports, these 10 to 20 page reports shine a spotlight on niche and emerging industries that don’t fit neatly into standard coding conventions.
