There are two high-level types of distribution channels, direct and indirect. In the direct distribution 

channel, goods are moved directly from the Producer to the Consumer.  In the indirect distribution 

channel, the producer will meet consumer demand through third -party wholesalers and/or retailers. 

Direct channels produce short supply chains, indirect channels produce long chains.

distribution approach each company uses direct, indirect, or mixed for at least two products in each
