The distribution business, the critical element of any business, especially the retail ones, has followed its trajectory as non-linear.
Whether delivering products to customers or providing services to organizations, distribution businesses have played a vital role in shaping a nation’s economy.
Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has put the distribution business at loggerheads with the online players. Gone are the days when distribution was all about streamlining the supply chains and procurement practices and getting the products and services delivered at the right place at the right time.
The world has changed, and so have the ways of doing business.
This has made the entire distribution business processes come at the forefront of enabling customers with enhanced productivity, increased customer satisfaction, and surged profitability amid the chaos that the pandemic has caused to the world.
The repercussions of the pandemic have made businesses shift to digital ways of doing business, pushing organizations to adapt to digital transformation and deliver their goods and services to the masses.
According to recent research, the global distribution market is surging rapidly owing to the e-commerce, internet penetration, and omnichannel experience that customer get with the digitized distribution businesses.
Factors such as the rising need for digital value chains, digitized supply chains, and automated procurement contribute to digital distribution businesses’ market share.
However, some of the challenges that originate in the initial days of digital distribution include the following.
Digitization in Wholesale
These days, Wholesalers are facing significant obstacles due to new digital competitors, changing customer expectations, and increased product and pricing transparency, that not only offer valuable opportunities but also provide core competencies to not only address the digital developments but also profit from them.
- Creating a B2C shopping experience
Businesses undergoing transition are exposed to mainstream e-commerce for years and expect the same standards of convenience and service from their business procurement processes., which is not always achievable.
For example, for the younger generations of customers and buyers, shopping online is as natural as using a smartphone.
- New Competitors
The threat of new entrants and vulnerability caused by the new competitors have always been a major restraint to the distribution business.
New digital players are penetrating markets that were previously dominated by wholesalers.
E-commerce platforms such as Amazon not only have sophisticated digital know-how but also have the financial certainty to outnumber the traditional manual distribution cycles with the digital ones, which initially came as a challenge for the organizations.
