Types of Home-Country Middlemen Global Retailers –retailers with stores in many countries Export Management Company —an agent that functions as a low cost independent “marketing department” Trading Companies —firms that accumulate and distribute a wide variety of goods from many countries U.S. Export Trading Companies —joint ventures organized to handle export activities and share costs and risks Complementary Marketers —firms that export their goods and desire to take on additional products or lines from others Manufacturer's Export Agent —an individual or firm that covers a small area and does business under its own name
