Retailing is the final stop in the distribution channel where goods and services are sold to consumers for their personal use. Franchising refers to a business model where the franchisor provides a licensed privilege to the franchisee to sell products or services under their brand. Brokering involves matching buyers and sellers and earning a commission on the transactions. Wholesaling involves selling products in large quantities to retailers, who then sell them to consumers. Disintermediation refers to the removal of intermediaries, such as middlemen, from a supply chain.
