Needed some parts for my business.
Went direct to brand selling them.
They told me the MOQ of the factories and MOQ that their distributors buy from.
The value of of distributors is pretty much to lower the MOQ and they charge higher cost per unit.
The brand told me to buy from distributors For lower MOQ. I’m like ok, turns out most don’t carry the specific part I want, so now I need to purchase the same high MOQ that the distributor purchases from.
So there is literally no point in purchasing from distributor now. I ask the brand to purchase right from the factory becauseI am hitting the MOQ.
Wait for it...they say that would hurt the relationship of their distributors and they wouldn’t do that. Now I have to go through the middleman because of politics??? Must be nice to be on the list of that distributors. Those parts will always be in demand. Essentially, the distributors have a locked number of competitors, there are only like 3 distributors in the US.
