which type of distribution requires a product to use intermediaries between the producer and consumer?
a direct distribution
b indirect distribution
c mass distribution
d global distribution

Explanation:

To determine the answer, we analyze each option:

• Option A (direct distribution): Involves the producer selling directly to the consumer, so no intermediaries are used. Eliminate A.
• Option B (indirect distribution): By definition, this type of distribution uses intermediaries (like wholesalers, retailers) between the producer and the consumer to get the product to market. This matches the question's description.
• Option C (mass distribution): Focuses on distributing products widely to many consumers, but it doesn't inherently require intermediaries (it could be direct or indirect, but the key here is the use of intermediaries). Eliminate C.
• Option D (global distribution): Refers to distributing products across different countries/regions, and it doesn't specify the use of intermediaries (it's about the geographic scope, not the presence of intermediaries). Eliminate D.

Answer:

B. indirect distribution
