manufacturer and supplier

manufacturer and supplier refers to two key players in the production and distribution of goods. A manufacturer is a company or individual who produces products, while a supplier provides the materials or finished products to retailers or wholesalers. Manufacturers may work directly with suppliers to source raw materials, which are then transformed into final products. Suppliers, in turn, distribute these goods to retailers, businesses, or end consumers. Many businesses rely on both manufacturers and suppliers to ensure a smooth production process and efficient delivery of goods to the market.
