Theory
Products and services are moved from businesses to customers and other
or service available for use or consumption, such as wholesalers, retailers, and sales
agents. Distribution channels are simply one part of the larger idea of distribution
networks, which are the real, tangible systems of interconnected sources and
that store, ship, or receive materials (such as factories, warehouses, and retail outlets);
and 2) a set of routes (land, sea, air, satellite, cable, Internet) that connect these
locations. Distribution networks can be divided into two types: simple and complex. A
basic distribution network is one that has only one source of supply, demand, or both,
of the network. The primary decisions for managers in a simple distribution network are
when and how much to order and ship, based on internal purchasing and inventory
concerns.
Manufacturers and providers of many products and services employ a variety of
distribution channels. A personal computer, for example, can be purchased directly from
the manufacturer by phone, direct mail, or the Internet, or from a variety of merchants
stores. Large and small enterprises can also make purchases through alternative
channels.
The number of layers in a channel structure might range from two to five. The
most basic is a two-level system in which goods and services are delivered straight from
the maker or provider to the customer. Consumers can order products directly from the
manufacturer, and the manufacturer executes those orders through its own physical
channel system. Retailers purchase things directly from the manufacturer and then sell
them to consumers.
When producers sell to wholesalers rather than retailers, a fourth level is added.
Manufacturers, wholesalers, jobbers, retailers, and consumers are all part of a five-level
channel structure, with jobbers serving smaller stores not covered by the industry's
main wholesalers.

Aside from that, they must concentrate on their skills and capabilities in order to
manage the company despite its different locations. They may choose the best
employee out of all interested individuals to manage their branches, and they can also
create seminars and programs for new workers to learn the best skill set necessary of
courses of action. Over a decade ago, Lean Management was created to help
businesses decrease all types of waste and become more productive. Not only will
business productivity increase as a result of this, but production costs will also be
limited and minimized. For example, if management can meet rising customer demand
labor, the management would reduce the number of workers and replace them with
machines that can work 10 times quicker. Direct labor is reduced as a result of this, but
products production outlasts the number of market needs. As a result, the corporation
