Which articles of the new product range are suitable to be carried? How to arrange buying conditions? Which additional compensations are due for the last quarter? Should shower gel or rather bath foam be promoted next month? Buyers and Category Managers have to answer similar and many other questions on a daily basis when dealing with their manufacturing partners. In order to decide which articles are to be carried, negotiate conditions and plan advertising efficiently day-to-day business partners have to cooperate.
