Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Direct store delivery (DSD) is a distribution method that bypasses the retailer's DC and delivers the merchandise directly to the retailer's stores. Typically, vendors offering DSD provide additional services such as assessing the store's stock levels and backroom inventory to determine the right amount needed and then have the store manager approve a replenishment order. The vendor's representative may also restock the shelves or racks, rearrange merchandise, and remove dated products.
