Multi-Brand

Multi-brand distribution is the common brand industry term for distribution via a third-party retailer or e.commerce platform.At the same time, it is somewhat the brand industries’ love-hate distribution channel. We hate it because the brand can’t fully control its appearance to the consumer. And we love it, for its continuing high financial attractiveness. Profits from multi-brand wholesale distribution are mostly stronger than from “direct to consumer” distribution. And exactly that is the strategic challenge for many brands, the share of multi-brand distribution is too high and investments in direct to consumer channels are small and late.Be it quality online platforms or excellent department stores, both multi-brand distribution channels will play a long-term strategic role in the future of brand distribution.We share in this section brand success stories, outline trends and what drives wholesale performances, both strategically as commercially.
