  3. 3Breaking bulk by sorting, grading, and repacking the goods into smaller commercial packages.
  4. 4Extending trade credit and distributing the smaller packages to scattered local retailers.

Cevap

The correct sequence is: acquiring bulk consignments and legal title from manufacturers, storing bulk inventory in regional warehouses, breaking bulk into smaller commercial packages, and extending trade credit while distributing smaller packages to local retailers.
The logical sequence of wholesale operations begins with acquiring bulk consignments and legal title from manufacturers. Next, the wholesaler transports and stores these bulk goods in regional warehouses to ensure steady market supply. Afterwards, the wholesaler performs bulk-breaking by unpacking, sorting, and repacking goods into smaller lots. Finally, the wholesaler sells these smaller packages to local retailers, frequently extending short-term trade credit and providing delivery services.

Acquiring bulk shipments and assuming legal title is step 1.
The wholesaler must first buy in bulk and accept ownership risk before handling or selling the products.
2

Bulk goods must be safely stored in central facilities to bridge the time gap between production and market demand.
3
Identify the preparation step needed before selling to smaller traders.
