Marketing plays a crucial role in the business activities of enterprises, especially in highly competitive markets When it comes to marketing, people often refer to the 4 Ps, which are the fundamental features of marketing activities Additionally, managing distribution channels is vital for the success of a campaign However, the task of managing these distribution channels has not received adequate attention from many companies' owners For instance, Viet Tinh Anh Joint Stock Company serves as an exclusive distributor.
LEǤ0, one of the most sought-after brands in Vietnam, primarily distributes its products through two traditional channels: retail shops and the company's boutiques in major shopping centers To enhance growth and achieve success alongside other distributors in the toy market, LEǤ0 must improve the quality of existing channels and explore new ones Following an internship at Viet Tinh Anh Joint Stock Company, I aim to write a thesis on "Developing distribution channels for Viet Tinh Anh Joint Stock Company to boost the sales of imported LEǤ0 toys." This thesis will identify existing problems in the distribution channels of Viet Tinh Anh Joint Stock Company and propose practical solutions to improve sales for imported LEǤ0 toys from Denmark.

Amsƚг0пǥ has highlighted key updated measures in modern marketing to enhance product marketability in recent business environments The work also successfully revealed the role and relationship between distribution channels and other elements in a marketing strategy.
The website http://www.articlesplanet.com features numerous articles on distribution channels that reference various case studies on distribution strategies of large corporations worldwide Additionally, these articles emphasize the importance of reducing channel conflicts, effective stock management, and distribution fulfillment to enhance business efficiency, as well as the integration of internet marketing distribution and multi-channel retail integration.
The Global Outlook series on Distribution Channel Research offers a comprehensive collection of statistical anecdotes, market briefs, and concise summaries of research findings This report provides a bird's-eye view of the distribution channel system's structure and the changing trends affecting its landscape Discussion on the global market is linked with concise primers on major distribution channel markets, such as Agricultural Sector, Retail Banking, Insurance Sector, and Mutual Funds Readers gain an understanding of market fundamentals and learn the truth behind multi-channeling trends in developed markets, along with the simple math underlying the correlation between product performance, effective product penetration, and gap analysis in the customer market The report highlights recent mergers, acquisitions, and other noteworthy corporate developments The retailing/distribution landscape in the US is quantitatively analyzed and complemented with 46 market data tables that portray the prevalent retailing practices and distribution trends.
The article discusses four key infrastructure segments in selected industries, including cosmetics (fragrances, hair care, health & beauty aids), office products, consumer food & beverage products, individual life insurance, lamps, table linens, home textiles, wall décor, fashion-licensed merchandise, and over-the-counter drugs It also briefly covers regional markets such as France, Italy, the UK, China, and India, providing a comprehensive indexed directory for easy reference This directory includes contact details for 2,281 companies worldwide, facilitating access to essential information in these sectors.
In Vietnam, there has been significant research on marketing and distribution channels due to the evolving business atmosphere Notably, MA Ngọc Quý has completed a master's thesis on distribution channels titled "The Development of Distribution Channels for Gold and Silver Products in Phu Nhuan District." However, this thesis focused on a different category of products—gold and silver products rather than toys for children To date, there has been no thesis or research on toy products in Vietnam Importantly, the LEGO toy products are quite distinct due to their high price, and they also aid in the physical and mental development of children.
The author believes that the theme of the thesis is worth researching Furthermore, in the current situation of the dog distribution industry in Vietnam, which has often delivered Chinese products, the research's results may help Viet Tinh Anh JS to sustain and develop its operations.

From the definitions above, we can derive a general definition for distribution channels: they serve as a bridge to connect a company's products or services to the end-users These distribution channels facilitate the flow of products or services from the companies to the consumers.

To effectively organize and manage a distribution channel, it is essential to thoroughly understand its structures Each campaign must be carefully analyzed to ensure optimal performance and alignment with overall business objectives.
The distributive channel structure is defined as a set of institutions that, over the long run and under conditions of competition and low barriers to entry, constitutes the channel for certain products in a given spatial context It is composed of a group that can create greater profit or enhance consumer satisfaction per dollar of product cost.

The presence of a specific type of channel member is crucial for enhancing the value delivered to end-users, including business customers and consumers This involves manufacturers, intermediaries (wholesale, retail, and specialized), and end-users working together to ensure effective channel flows.
Depending on the specific type of product or service, different distribution channel structures can be observed The two most common structures are direct and indirect channels This means that manufacturers can choose to manage the distribution process themselves or allow intermediaries to get involved Many companies opt for the direct structure to control the entire distribution process, enabling them to manage marketing activities more effectively and save costs for the company.
On the other hand, other manufacturers may not consider direct structure as a viable option They might only be involved in certain phases of the distribution process, but not the entire operation The responsibilities of the other phases will be assigned to the remaining members of the channels to ensure expertise.

The distribution process involves various structures, as illustrated in Figure 1.1 The direct structure is responsible for all manufacturing jobs related to delivering products or services to consumers In contrast, the indirect structures involve agencies, wholesalers, and retailers participating in the distribution process Each structure has its own advantages and disadvantages, which depend on the executives' ability to select the best structures for the company.

According to Aເເ0гdiпǥ ƚ0 ເ0uǥҺlaп, eƚ al (1996), channel formats can be based on any of the three sections of the traditional pipeline: manufacturer, distributor, or customer, but they may also have other bases Below are some main types of distribution channels observed in the context of e0uǥҺlaп, eƚ al.
The first step in selecting a marketing channel is determining which type of channel will best meet both the seller's objectives and the distribution needs of customers.
Channel length refers to the number of intermediaries between the producer and the consumer A short channel exists when the producer sells directly to the consumer, while a long channel involves multiple intermediaries such as agents, wholesalers, and retailers The choice between a short or long channel is primarily a strategic decision for the producing firm However, some industries have longer distribution channels than others The most significant factor determining channel length is how the retail system is framed, as framed retail systems tend to promote the growth of wholesalers serving retailers, which in turn lengthens channels.
The more fragmented the retail system, the more expensive it becomes for a firm to sell directly to each individual retailer For instance, a company selling toothpaste in a country with 50,000 small retailers would need to establish a large sales force, which would be costly, especially since each sale would yield a small order However, if there are 50 wholesalers in the country supplying not only toothpaste but also a variety of personal care and household products, these wholesalers can secure larger orders with each sales call, making it worthwhile for them to deal directly with retailers Consequently, it makes economic sense for the firm to sell to wholesalers, who in turn manage relationships with retailers Countries with fragmented retail systems tend to have longer distribution channels, as exemplified by Japan, where there are often two or three layers of wholesalers between the firm and retail outlets This pattern is also observed in countries like Great Britain and Germany.

When the retail sector is highly concentrated, it is advantageous for firms to engage directly with retailers, bypassing wholesalers A relatively small sales force is necessary to manage a concentrated retail sector, and the orders generated from each sales call can be substantial Such dynamics are prevalent in the United States, where large food companies prefer to sell directly to supermarkets rather than going through wholesale distributors.
Distribution channels can be categorized as either short or long A short channel involves fewer intermediaries, while a long channel includes many intermediaries working together to move goods from producers to consumers Generally, businesses tend to prefer shorter channels for consumer products due to geographical considerations and fewer business purchases Service firms primarily market through short channels because they sell intangible products and need to maintain personal relationships within their channels Non-profit institutions also tend to work with short, simple, and direct channels The simplest and shortest distribution channel is a direct channel, which carries goods directly from a producer to the business purchaser or consumer One of the newest means of selling through a direct channel is the Internet, allowing producers to serve their customers better and at a lower price than possible through a retailer Sometimes, a direct channel is the only way to sell a product, as using channel intermediaries may increase the price above what consumers are willing to pay Another reason to use a direct channel is control.
Producers increasingly rely on indirect channels to reach consumers, as customers are familiar with retail outlets and other intermediaries These channels help producers meet the demands of consumers effectively By enhancing utility and improving transaction efficiencies, channel members simplify the lives of producers and strengthen their ability to connect with customers.

Distribution channel management involves overseeing all managerial activities related to the distribution channel, aiming to ensure the cooperation of selected channel members This collaboration, in turn, assists manufacturers in achieving their distribution targets It is essential for distribution channels to be conducted objectively and to adhere to planned targets.
First, distribution channel management focuses on existing available channels The channels to be managed have a defined structure and selected members Decisions regarding the operation and management of distribution channels should be taken seriously However, in reality, sometimes these considerations fail to lead to clear clarification In other words, in some cases, decisions on operation are about management For example, when a decision on discount pricing is given to sustain cooperative relationships between channel members, it may lead to changes in membership Hence, decisions on operation are clearly decisions on management.

A distribution channel can be efficient when each single distribution channel's workflow runs smoothly The key point in managing distribution channels is completing their workflows Building a comprehensive information system within distribution channels facilitates communication from manufacturers to end-users The development of information and technologies enhances operational achievements and coordination of distribution activities Additionally, it helps reduce the cost of marketing workflows Establishing a complete information system will assist members in connecting conveniently with providers and users.
Distribution management relies on modern information flows, transportation, and warehouses Distribution managers must navigate a complex network of coordination between transportation and storage to minimize distribution costs as much as possible Mastering modern business logistics is essential For instance, managers should utilize contemporary transportation methods that enhance productivity while reducing expenses.
Strengthening promotion work flows is essential because promotional activities play a key role in distribution operations It serves as a competitive tool in the market The responsibilities of distribution channel managers include planning and sharing both operational costs and accountability for promotional activities A firm should coordinate between members and support them to operate promotional activities effectively Technological advancements have helped eliminate administrative workloads Information and technology also strengthen relationships and develop negotiation skills among members A shift is needed from commercial affairs to fostering business relationships.
Complete the system by creating and implementing appropriate payment methods to reduce the timeframe for payments and bad debts Modernization should be enhanced by applying e-payment solutions and transferring money through banks to mitigate risks.
Implementing a streamlined purchase order procedure is crucial for a firm to enhance distribution activities It is advisable to systematize and automate purchase order processes, along with effective storage management.
To enhance distribution efficiency, a firm must evaluate its members, excluding intermediaries who only own the products without contributing to necessary distribution efforts It is crucial for the firm to understand and manage buying and selling activities in the market to avoid unnecessary stagnation Each member in the channel is responsible for operational capital, and the firm should provide financial support to members or smaller-scale firms Additionally, every member must acknowledge their roles in risk sharing and management; to mitigate risks, a firm should consider insurance Finally, appropriate record-keeping is essential to eliminate transportation and storage costs.

Assessing the efficiency of each distribution channel is essential for a firm to meet its targets There are several standards that a firm can use to evaluate the effectiveness of distribution channels, including gross profit rate (percentage of revenue), selling rate (percentage of total selling quantity), capital turnover (number of turns per year), return on assets (ROA), investment and operational maintenance costs, storage maintenance costs, control degree, market coverage degree, and more These popular standards help in evaluating the overall distribution channel system.
Two groups are tasked with evaluating how much the distribution targets are achieved, focusing on metrics such as revenue, selling quantity, revenue growth rate, and quantity growth rate Additionally, they assess costs, including selling costs However, the evaluation depends on specific features of product lines, firms, and the perspectives of distribution channel managers.

In the analysis of revenue trends from the last six months of 2008 compared to the final six months of 2007, it is evident that sales revenue decreased, while revenue from financing activities increased due to the company's recent establishment Since Viet Tinh Anh JSC operates as a commercial services enterprise, sales activities accounted for over 99% of total revenue, which explains the overall decline in total revenue However, when comparing the first six months of 2008 and 2009, there was an increase in revenue from goods sales, while revenue from financing activities saw a decrease.

In 2008, the economy faced significant challenges, impacting consumer spending habits, particularly in luxury goods However, the first half of 2009 experienced a recovery in the overall economy, positively influencing shopping behaviors among consumers.
In 2009, the producer's prices were adjusted at the request of the manufacturer, and the company continued to enhance marketing programs to encourage purchases These efforts significantly increased the sales of LEGO toys in both the North and South regions Promotional campaigns, including gift programs, lucky draws, and 5% discounts for children purchasing products on their birthdays, contributed to substantial sales growth for the company during that period.

To effectively operate a distribution channel, a firm must thoroughly understand the core characteristics of the target market, products, commercial intermediaries, internal resources, and marketing environments Viet Tinh Anh is the leading company in logistics distribution in Viet Nam Within four years of establishment, Viet Tinh Anh has adapted to meet the distribution channel requirements based on the characteristics of the target market, products, and marketing environments, particularly focusing on the internal resources of the company.
Vietnam is considered a potential market for the toy industry According to the General Statistics Office, in 2010, nearly 40% of the population consisted of children aged 0-14 years Additionally, the living standards of Vietnamese people have significantly improved, making it easier for households to shop for their children.

In Vietnam, there has been a rise in domestic toy manufacturers, primarily private companies that are still developing their professionalism The domestic toy market is expected to see increased demand due to the growing population and rising living standards However, domestic suppliers are struggling to meet this demand quickly In comparison to foreign toy producers, domestic manufacturers are often at a disadvantage in terms of patterns, techniques, and financial resources.

Improved products by reputable distributors are often found in supermarkets or big retail outlets Several years ago, high-quality and high-price products did not attract buyers well due to their limited budget for consumption However, there has been a change in consumer behavior as the average income has increased over the years, leading to a greater acceptance of premium products.
The primary markets for high-quality top products are in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and Hanoi, which are the two largest markets in the country Although Viet Tinh Anh JSC has been established for only four years, it has achieved significant milestones in HCMC and Hanoi Currently, it continues to explore the potential of these markets.
The HEEM market boasts the largest population and the highest GDP per capita in the region, along with significant consumption habits According to Vientiane Times, HEEM is recognized as one of the most promising markets, offering substantial revenue potential In HEEM, LEGOs are distributed across 14 supermarkets, shopping malls, and retail outlets.
