Production Volume Estimate



BladeRoller Production Volume Estimate
There are 126.1 million households in the US[1]. This study[2] indicates that 211 million Americans owned lawn and garden equipment, which corresponds to roughly of the US population. Therefore we go on to assume that approximately of households have lawn and garden equipment or ~80 million households. We assume that of these 80 million households, roughly half of them own some form of lawn-mower (others may have just a leaf-blower, trimmers, etc.). This study3 estimates that manual lawn-mowers are ~ 6% of total lawn-mower sales. Therefore there are ~2.4 million households that would own manual lawn-mowers. 

As this is a niche product we assume that our product would be able to obtain ~ 5% market share within this space, or roughly 120,000 units. We estimate that each household would purchase one BladeRoller on average every 5 years. Thus we estimate our estimated production volume to be ~25,000 units (annually).
