According to this study, that particular year about 30,000 attractions impacted directly the American economy with $91 billion (approx €69 billion), an amount that includes direct industry sales ($34 billion), capital expenditures ($5 billion) but also ancillary spending of out-of-town visitors at local establishments outside the attractions, such as hotels, restaurants, and retailers ($52 billion). The industry also generated indirectly $127 billion through the supply chain and the spending of attractions-generated incomes.
The study also shows that, over the period from 2004 to 2011, the attractions industry grew at nearly twice the rate of the overall U.S. economy with an average growth rate of 6% per annum (against 3.5%). In 2004, the industry generated $146 billion, including $61 billion in direct impacts and $85 billion in indirect and induced impacts.Our Theme Park Supplier's News of the Week is a round-up of the latest news relative to companies supplying the theme park industry around the world.
