Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Downstream players in a supply chain refer to those who are closer to the end customer. Retailers are the best example of downstream players as they are the closest to the customer and are responsible for selling the product to them. Suppliers, manufacturers, inbound transportation providers, and accountants are all part of the supply chain, but they are further upstream and not as close to the end customer.
