Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Angela is offering to set up and maintain a small display in David's store, restocking it weekly and maintaining inventory records. This is consistent with the services provided by a rack jobber. A general-line wholesaler carries a wide variety of products, a specialty-line wholesaler focuses on one specific product category, a full-service merchant wholesaler provides a wide range of services including financing and market research, and a cash-and-carry wholesaler sells products to customers who pay in cash and carry the products away themselves. None of these options fit Angela's business model.
