WFOEs Take Control Over Supply Chain and Distribution in China | Establish:

In the past, foreign firms selling in China were required to work with distributors. However, in 2006 the early batch of new WFOE (Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprise) trading companies are now beginning to take control over their supply chains. These companies are replacing the role that their distributors once played and are realizing the need to develop and refine their distribution network strategy for China.
