Intermediaries in Business
Business is such a field which involves several or even many elements to support its running. A business at least consists of two parties, producer and consumer who need each other and can’t stand alone. In most businesses, there are more than two parties involved so that it’s called as business chain. Besides producer and consumer, there are several parties who act as middlemen or commonly known as wholesalers. Wholesaler is one of business chain’s components who sell goods in large quantities to be retailed by others. I think there should be many people who prefer to be wholesalers since they don’t really like or have limitations to be producers. At least this is what some friends of mine have done in running their business. Being wholesalers could also be such a good business opportunities since both producers and consumers need their service. Producers need wholesalers to distribute their products to the retailers or even to the consumers. On the other side consumers also need wholesalers or retailers’ service to get their requirements. This is because consumers are not able to get the products from the producers directly which usually sell products in large quantities. If there are a number of producers who really want to get their products delivered to the consumers, then there should be a large number of wholesalers or retailers who act as intermediaries. In other words, there should be a lot of opportunities in this business field if people are able to catch them as well.
