        Sample Questions & Answers

        How do changes in interest rates affect the company's profits?

        Because many distributors finance their inventories, they're sensitive to interest rates. On average, distributors hold inventory equal to 35 days sales, but machinery distributors may hold products for more than 50 days. Food and petroleum product...

         

        How much business has the company lost due to retailers buying directly from manufacturers?

        Big retailers like Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Costco buy much of their merchandise directly from manufacturers, bypassing distributors. Because they buy in large quantity and operate their own warehouse systems, these retailers don't need distributors.

          Competitive Landscape Brief

          Demand depends heavily on US manufacturing activity. Profitability depends on product selection and efficient operations. Large companies have economies of scale in advertising and sales programs. Small companies can compete effectively by specializing in particular industries, end-use applications, or geographical areas, and by offering special services. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is about $530,000. Imports are an important source of product for industrial machinery wholesalers. Major sources of imports are Germany, Japan, China, and Canada.
