Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Greg is a truck wholesaler, as he picks up fresh vegetables from farmers and transports them to grocers and restaurants on a regular route. Drop shippers never handle the product they sell, but instead rely on the manufacturer to ship directly to their customers. General-line wholesalers provide a range of related products, while specialty-line wholesalers offer a narrow range of products. Cash-and-carry wholesalers require customers to pick up their own products.
