Kelloggs distribution channel

Based on our research we have been able to find the following on the distribution channels. The

Kelloggs manufacturing plant is located in Maharashtra. The inventory makes its way to the super-

stockist of Goa. The goods are sold off to the wholesale dealers who distribute exclusively in North Goa

and South Goa. The retailers in these locations strike bargains with these distributers in the respective

regions to for their supply of goods and materials. The wholesale dealers masquerade separately as

different firms to provide distributions for a Pan India Supply or State Supply. While the former

distribution is meant for low margin state-cooperative retailers the latter is meant for normal retailers.
