DISPERSAL STRATEGY
Routes to Market
Marketing
There are many factors which come into play when planning a dispersal strategy. We seek to weigh these factors up to determine the optimum route to market for a brand or product.
Of primary consideration is, of course the benefit to the manufacturer. End of line products, consumer returns or excess stock have often been ignored as assets. We work together with our clients to identify markets which will realise the maximum potential yield per unit whilst achieving a non conflicting market position.
As a virtue of many years’ experience in provisioning a one stop solution for manufacturers we have solid profiles both at home in the UK and abroad.
We export to established markets, manage high visibility UK ecommerce platforms and utilise several B2B Channels in order to maximise yield.
Our B2B platforms have had considerable success in selling excess and obsolete stock to traders and has a worldwide audience which has proved very useful in disposing of stock with territorial restrictions
