Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Investing in information technology systems allows wholesalers to streamline their operations and reduce costs in the long run. They can automate certain tasks, manage inventory more efficiently, and make better decisions with real-time data. Relocating may help with rent and taxes, but it may not be feasible for all businesses. Investing less in machinery may not be a viable option if the machinery is necessary for operations. Increasing markup or reducing promotional activities may negatively impact sales and customer loyalty.
