FAQ

An international distribution agreement is a legal contract between two parties that authorizes one party to sell or distribute the other's products. This type of arrangement usually benefits both businesses because it makes the process more efficient and can help each company increase its customer base.

An exclusive distribution clause prevents the supplier from forming other distribution contracts in a given market or territory. This gives the distributor the exclusive right to sell the products in that region. Exclusivity might be provided contingent on the distributor's performance.

As discussed in the Fact Sheets on Dealings in the Supply Chain, exclusive contracts between manufacturers and suppliers, or between manufacturers and dealers, are generally lawful because they improve competition among the brands of different manufacturers (interbrand competition).

Thus, the question of whether a distributorship contract is governed by the UCC will depend on the exact nuances of the contract. To determine whether the UCC applies, “courts generally examine the transaction to determine whether the sale of goods predominates.” Princess Cruises v. GE, 143 F. 3d 828, 833 (4th Cir.

Isn't that illegal? A: Exclusive distribution arrangements like this usually are permitted. Although the retailer is prevented from selling competing flat-panel display monitors, this may be the type of product that requires a certain level of knowledge and service to sell.

Although some claims under Sherman Act, Section 1 are per se illegal under the antitrust laws, exclusive dealing is not. Instead, courts analyze these claims under the rule of reason. That means that the court won't allow any shortcuts.

Exclusivity clauses are generally enforceable when they are properly drafted. Federal law typically permits exclusivity clauses in contracts, as do most state laws. Specific restrictions may be imposed depending on the nature of your contract, what services you provide, and the terms of the agreement.

The term for Distribution Agreements varies, with terms being anywhere from 5 to 15 years. I try to limit the term as much as possible—especially when there is no advance, or a meager one.
