Answer: Typically, distributors buy goods from manufacturers and sell the goods to wholesalers. Then, wholesalers sell those goods to retailers who sell them to consumers.

Explanation: Retail is the sale of goods particularly, small quantities of goods directly to consumers. Traditionally, retailers have purchased the goods that sell from wholesalers. Wholesalers purchase goods in bulk from distributors, who purchase goods directly from manufacturers. Exceptions to this process exist, with manufacturers selling directly to consumers via outlet stores being one example.
