The most common channel of distribution is Manufacturer→ wholesaler→ retailer
→customer. Distributions can, however, take place through slightly modified
channels. For example, products are sometimes sold directly by the wholesaler or
the manufacturer, rather than by the retailer. Generally, wholesalers charge lower
prices than retailers and sell in large quantities. Together, these channels of
distribution play a vital role in the placement element of marketing.
