DESCRIPTION:

Trade marketing is a discipline of marketing that relates to increasing the demand at wholesaler, retailer, or distributor levels while at the same time engaging consumers/shoppers more at the point of purchase. Overall, while the trade marketing function is still in its infancy stage (in most leading companies), it has established its importance and will continue to grow, expand and stamp its own authority within organisations as the retail landscape changes in the coming years. Additionally, trade marketing can play a pivotal role in providing a liaison role between the sales and marketing function so as to ensure better alignment, resulting in more effective execution of business strategy.
