Dans le cas des capteurs de position de papillon des gaz, cela signifierait passer une commande aupr&egrave;s de l'installation qui fabrique, assemble et teste les composants.<\/p>\n<h2>1.2 En quoi cela diff&egrave;re-t-il de la distribution traditionnelle<\/h2>\n<p>Dans un canal de distribution traditionnel, le fabricant d'&eacute;quipement d'origine vend &agrave; un distributeur national, qui fournit ensuite le produit &agrave; des grossistes r&eacute;gionaux avant qu'il n'atteigne l'utilisateur final.
