Frequently asked questions
What is a vertical marketing system?
A vertical marketing system is a distribution channel in which producers, wholesalers and retailers act as one unified system. One member owns the others, has contracts with them or holds enough power to coordinate them. The three types are corporate, contractual and administered.
What is the difference between intensive, selective and exclusive distribution?
Intensive distribution places a product in as many outlets as possible, as with soft drinks. Selective distribution uses a limited number of chosen outlets. Exclusive distribution gives only a few dealers the right to sell in a region, which suits luxury cars and premium brands.
