Top 100 companies worldwide: Wholesale Trade, Except Motor Vehicles

Wholesale trade, except motor vehicles, refers to the management and transfer of goods in the distribution chain from manufacturer to retailer. Wholesale distributors either sell or orchestrate the sale or purchase of goods between wholesalers or the sale of goods from wholesalers to retailers, and non-consumer goods in the form of materials used in production. The number of large companies in the wholesale trade industry, excluding motor vehicles, is an indicator of the overall economic performance of that sector. Not only do these companies provide jobs for the local markets, but they are also able to achieve success in global markets, thus generating greater value.
