Despite many opportunities of Direct-to-Consumer (DTC), wholesale still remains to be a major part of the brand's business – and won’t be going away anytime soon.

The same principles that apply to the DTC strategy, are now also applied for selling wholesale to retailers - although of course slightly differently.
