This Sector Scenario from the Business Trends Library causes an Impact on the Scenario you may have just been viewing - but is not available in Open Access.

You will appreciate the power of the Business Trends Library in bringing you Impacts which may affect your firm, which may arise a long way from your usual purview. People doing Business Environment Assessment generally do not look wide enough to discover Impacts which may affect them. This builds up to the conclusion that Scenarios need to be drawn from a comprehensive Data Base of the Business Environment. This you will get if you subscribe to Scenarios from the Business Trends Library.

Where an impact comes from a Sector which itself is in Open Access you will see how this operates, and how you can evaluate yourself how the Impact arises and its effect on your firm.

The Distribution Sector deals with the issues that at higher economic levels the number of buyers and sellers increase, and trade expands over wider areas with increasing intensity. These produce the need for more advertising and promotion, and the means to match the buyers and sellers. As well as physical distribution it is also an information problem, and dependent on the communications infrastructure, as well as transport communications. Both of these are dependent on the current computer revolution, which is influencing the form and structure of businesses supplying and marketing goods and services - and making great problems for many now and others in the future.
