What to Focus On

  • Channels of distribution connect producers and consumers.
  • Middlemen are the connecting links in distribution.
  • A channel helps goods move from the place of production to the place of consumption.

  • Direct channel has no middleman.
  • Indirect channel has one or more middlemen.
  • Large-scale producers often use indirect channels.

  • No middleman is present in direct channel.
  • Producers can sell through their own retail shops.
