States with Increased Market Share
Market Share increases are especially prominant in western states like Oklahoma, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. While North Carolina showed remarkable growth in the last half decade, growth there is expected to level off as space and resources become maximally used. Look for exciting growth in the south and west United States in upcoming years.
