Industry reports are be a valuable source of information for a strategic analysis, feasibility analysis, or business model canvas. Reports typically present overviews of industry trends, industry revenue, and revenue projections. Though reports may cover an industry that is broader than the area you are researching (for example, Sporting Goods Stores instead of Bicycle Shops), they are still useful for understanding the environment in which a new company may be operating.
