Bus/Financial - Transport / Transportation / Shipping | | French term or phrase: circuit dépositaire | I'm translating the "carte d'identité" of a pharmaceutical company presenting itself and its activities. Here's the context:
XXXX assure la distribution de vos produits par:
le circuit grossiste
le circuit dépositaire
Thanks! |
| | | agent network | Explanation:
The difference between dépositaire and grossiste is that the dépositaire does not buy the goods and then sell them on like a wholesaler. The goods are sold through him, not by him, so he's not a wholesaler, but an agent. |
