The supply chain, or channel, is affected by five
external forces:

Consumer behavior

Competitor behavior

Socioeconomic environment

Technological environment

The Supply Chain

A marketing function does not have to be shifted in its
entirety to another institution or to the consumer but
can be divided among several entities.
5
The Supply Chain
LO 1
• Marketing System
Is the set of institutions performing marketing
functions (activities), the relationships between these
institutions, and the functions that are necessary to
create exchange transactions with target populations
or consumers.

its goods directly to the final consumer or end user.

Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Quick Response (QR) Systems
Also known as Efficient Consumer Response (ECR)
Systems, are integrated information, production,
and logistical systems that obtain real-time
information on customer actions by capturing sale
data at point-of-purchase terminals and then
transmitting this information back through the
entire channel to enable efficient production and
distribution scheduling.
26
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Stock-Keeping Units
Are the lowest level of identification of merchandise.
27
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Corporate Vertical Marketing Systems
Exist where one channel institution owns multiple
levels of distribution and typically consists of either a
manufacturer that has integrated vertically forward to
reach the consumer or retailer that has integrated
vertically backward to create a self-supply network.
28
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Contractual Vertical Marketing Systems
Use a contract to govern the working relationship
between channel members and include wholesalersponsored voluntary groups, retailer-owned
cooperatives, and franchised retail programs.
29
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Wholesaler-Sponsored Voluntary Groups
Involve a wholesaler that brings together a group of
independently owned retailers and offers them a
coordinated merchandising and buying program that
will provide them with economies like those their chain
store rivals are able to obtain.
30
Wholesale Sponsored Voluntary Group
LO 2
• Wholesale sponsored
voluntary groups, such
as NAPA, have been a
major force in marketing
channels since the mid1960s. These marketing
institutions offer
members coordinated
merchandising and
buying programs that
help lower costs.
31
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Retailer-Owned Cooperatives
Are wholesale institutions, organized and owned by
member retailers, that offer scale economies and
services to member retailers, which allows them to
compete with larger chain-buying organizations.
TRU*SERV, Ace, Handy Hardware
32
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Franchise
Is a form of licensing by which the owner of a product,
service, or business method (the franchisor) obtains
distribution through affiliated dealers (franchisees).
33
Advantages to Franchise Ownership
LO 2: Exhibit 5.6

Advantages to Franchisee
• Franchisor provides managerial skills that are taught to
franchisee.
• Franchisee can begin a business with a relatively small capital
investment.
• Franchisee can acquire a relatively well known or established line
of business.
• Franchisee can acquire rights to a well-defined geographical area.
• The standardized marketing programs and operating procedures
enable the franchisee to be competitive immediately.
• Because they own a piece of the action, franchisees tend to be
more motivated and bottom-line oriented than managers of
corporate chain stores.
34
Disadvantages to Franchise Ownership
LO 2: Exhibit 5.6

Disadvantages to Franchisee
• Too many franchises can be located in a geographical area.
• Too many franchisors make promises they cannot keep (e.g.,
overstating the income potential of a franchise).
• Franchisors can include a buyback agreement whereby the
franchisee must sell back the franchise at a given point in time or
the franchise agreement is for a short duration.
• Under most franchise agreements, payments to the franchisor are
a percentage of a franchisee’s profitability.
• Franchise systems may be too inflexible in terms of operating
procedures (hours, product selection, etc.) for the franchisee. In
short, the franchisee must surrender to freedom to make many
decisions.
35
Yum! Brands Inc.
LO 2
• Yum! Brands Inc. (YUM), the
parent of Pizza Hut, has nearly
33,000 restaurants in 100
countries and territories.
These restaurants are
operated by the company or,
under the terms of franchise
or license agreements, by
franchisees or licensees that
are independent third parties
or by affiliates in which the
company owns a
noncontrolling equity interest.
36
Vertical Marketing Channels
LO 2

Administered Vertical Marketing Channels
Exist when one of the channel members takes the
initiative to lead the channel by applying the principles
of effective interorganizational management.

38
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations
LO 3
• Dependency
Every supply chain needs to perform eight marketing
functions, which can be performed by any combination
of the members. None of the respective institutions
and isolate itself; each depends on the others to do an
effective job.
39
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations
LO 3
• Power
Is the ability of one channel member to influence the
decisions of the other channel members.
40
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations:

• Reward Power is based on B’s perception that A has
the ability to provide rewards for B.
• Expertise Power is based on B’s perception that A has
some special knowledge.
• Referent Power is based on the identification of B with
A.
41
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations:
Types of Power
LO 3
• Coercive Power is based on B’s belief that A has the
capability to punish or harm B if B doesn’t do what A
wants.
• Legitimate Power is based on A’s right to influence B,
or B’s belief that B should accept A’s influence.
• Informational Power is based on A’s ability to provide
B with factual data.
42
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations
LO 3
• Conflict
Conflict is inevitable in every channel relationship
because retailers and suppliers are interdependent;
that is, every channel member is dependent on every
other channel member to perform some specific task.
43
Managing Retailer-Supplier Relations:
LO 3
Conflict
• Perceptual Incongruity occurs when the retailer and
supplier have different perceptions of reality.
• Goal Incompatibility occurs when achieving the goals
of either the supplier or the retailer would hamper the

independent retailers and also through its own retail
outlets.
44

buys and sells excess merchandise to and from

satisfying the retail consumer is the only way anyone
can be successful.

the retail mix within the category based on the firm’s
goals, the changing environment, and consumer
behavior.

while maintaining a strong partnership with its
retailers?
