Distribution Policy
Publication Guidelines
In order to better defend its brand and compete in the market, makimano. (“makimano”) has decided that it is necessary to exert more control over the distribution of its goods. As a result, this Distribution Policy (“Policy”) will apply to all sales of makimano products. This Policy has been unilaterally adopted, and it will only be unilaterally and severely implemented.
To wholesalers, distributors, jobbers, discounters, exporters, and importers (collectively, “resellers”), makimano bans the resale of its products.
makimano will, without taking any liability, cancel all orders and refuse to accept any new orders from any retailer as soon as makimano has verified to its satisfaction that such retailer has advertised, offered to sell, or sold any makimano product outside of its own physical store(s) or outside of its own online store(s). Although retailers who purchase products from makimano remain free to set their own resale prices and sales channels.
In addition, after makimano has determined to its satisfaction that a retailer has advertised, offered to sell, or sold any makimano product to any reseller, makimano will, without incurring any liability, cancel all orders and refuse to accept any new orders from that retailer. But if makimano determines to its satisfaction that a retailer has advertised, offered to sell, or sold any makimano product to or through a third-party internet website, makimano reserves the right to continue selling to such retailer a specific range of products that makimano designates as “Internet Sales Only.” makimano will decide on its own whether to carry out these restricted sales and which limited products it will choose to market.
As this Policy is non-negotiable and won’t be changed for any shop, makimano won’t negotiate any conditions of acceptance relating to it. Additionally, makimano lothing does not request or accept any assurances of adherence to this Policy. There is no promise between makimano and any store in this Policy that the retailer will adhere to it.
The sales representatives of makimano are not authorized to alter or provide exceptions to this Policy. Contact information for all inquiries is [email protected].
