Are you a Manufacturer Representative?
Manufacturer Representatives, as recognized by NAMM, are Independent
Sales agents that sell a manufacturer’s products to wholesale and retail
companies.
Usually, these Representatives are signed to a contract as an official
agent of the Manufacturer in order to allow them to sell the products in a
defined area or territory for a commission. These products are then
generally ordered directly from the manufacturer and then delivered to
the wholesaler or retailer.
