To be a distributor, you first need to develop your downstream retail channel. Becoming distributor is not difficult, but how do you retain and grow is the issue to confront. Manufacturers and importers are all the time looking for new distributors, however, to satisfy them you need to keep selling their products in your downstream retail channel. So, if you have good command over a market, tell that to concerned manufacturers. If the manufacturer does not have anyone in your market, chances are he/she will be interested. Though manufacturers insist on some investment, one can always run a successful negotiation on the back of selling strength.
