Abstract

Distribution channels, or basically paths, are how items are delivered from the maker to the consumer. This is the subject of the study. It examines the various varieties of these pathways and their mechanisms, emphasizing the function of intermediaries who facilitate this process. The growing significance of electronic channels for product sales is also mentioned. A supply chain can be thought of as a large network that consists of all the various companies, individuals, and tasks necessary to move an item from its point of manufacture to its point of purchase. This covers every step of the process, from obtaining the supplies needed to create something to carrying out the actual production to selling the completed good.
