[See how the model works →](https://www.comutech.cl/mcc-our-model-premium-v2#how)[Brief your leadership →](https://www.comutech.cl/mcc-leadership-briefing-premium-v2?hsLang=en) **01** Your team directs **02** MCC develops retail sales **03** The commercial route follows the economics What MCC actually does ## A sales operator. Not a reseller by default. Not just an adviser. In many consumer-technology categories, the shelf price cannot accommodate another full resale margin. MCC provides manufacturer-side sales and operating capacity without automatically becoming another buying-and-selling intermediary. Your international manager remains the executive sponsor. MCC becomes the locally accountable execution partner.Strategic decisions, brand policy and financial approvals stay with the manufacturer. A clearer commercial architecture ## We manage the sale. We do not automatically enter the product chain. Commercial representation, physical goods and money are three distinct flows. Keeping them distinct is essential to protecting price competitiveness and assigning financial responsibility. The commercial route · direct retail when viable ### A manufacturer-to-retailer transaction, with MCC working on the manufacturer's side. PRODUCT SUPPLIER**Manufacturer / HQ** → COMMERCIAL BUYER**Major Retail Account** **MCC Corp. , Regional Brand Operator**Account development · Selling · Negotiation · Launch · Sell-out · Replenishment This diagram illustrates a direct-purchase configuration, not a universal requirement. Retail import capability, local law, credit terms and product economics determine whether it is feasible. 01 / COMMERCIAL MANAGEMENT ### HQ ↔ MCC ↔ Retail MCC leads approved account development, sales negotiation and the local operating relationship; HQ retains its decision rights. 02 / PHYSICAL PRODUCT ### Supplier → Buyer Product moves to the contractual buyer directly or via the agreed importing, logistics or distribution structure. MCC does not automatically take title. 03 / FINANCIAL SETTLEMENT ### Buyer → Seller The buyer pays the contractual seller. MCC's service fees and/or sales commission are paid separately under its mandate. Accountability that supports your team ## Your international team leads. MCC executes locally. The operating model protects the authority of the executive who sponsors South American growth and gives HQ clear visibility of responsibilities. **MANUFACTURER / HQ** ### Owns the business decisions Brand, products, supply, country priorities, pricing guardrails, credit policy, partner approvals and agreed investment. **INTERNATIONAL SALES LEADER** ### Leads the expansion initiative Sets objectives, sponsors the mandate, reviews forecasts and performance, and remains accountable for strategic direction internally. **MCC / LOCAL COMMERCIAL EXECUTION** ### Sells and runs the agreed work Retail accounts, negotiations, launch coordination, channel partners, service follow-up, sell-out, stock and replenishment reporting. Your team is reinforced, not replaced. The goal is more execution capacity with clearly assigned authority. A practical route to market ## One region. Different operating realities. No rigid distribution formula. MCC works with headquarters to choose a viable configuration for each category and country, rather than forcing the same approach across South America. 01 / WHEN ECONOMICALLY VIABLE ### Direct major retail The retailer buys from the manufacturer. MCC develops the account and manages the approved local commercial work. 02 / WHEN LOCAL CAPABILITY IS NEEDED ### Functional importer or finance partner Qualified parties provide importation, invoicing, credit, collection or logistics capabilities where necessary. 03 / WHEN PARTNER VALUE IS REAL ### Supported distribution / hybrid A distributor may remain where its economic and operating contribution justifies the margin and responsibilities. **01** Shelf price **02** Total operating cost **03** Cash & credit exposure **04** Expected profitability ![Consumer technology retail displays illustrating major-account execution](https://www.comutech.cl/hubfs/mcc-corp/website/Home/MCC_Retail_Execution_Visual.png) The manufacturer approves the operating route and the corresponding financial commitments before execution. MCC does not guarantee collection of retailer payments. After the first purchase order ## Commercial success is measured beyond sell-in. A first listing or shipment is the beginning of the work. The business becomes sustainable when sell-out, service, product availability and repeat orders are managed. 01 / PREPARE ### Validate readiness Priority SKUs, landed shelf price, import path, service, partner responsibilities and HQ approvals. 02 / ACTIVATE ### Develop retail accounts Buyer engagement, proposals, negotiation, listing and launch support. 03 / MANAGE ### Drive sell-out Activation, stock visibility, channel performance, service issues and replenishment. 04 / DECIDE ### Scale with evidence Review actual results with HQ and decide whether to expand, adjust, internalize or stop. Commercial control, not a false promise of zero risk ## South American growth should be a managed business decision. MCC brings locally accountable selling and reporting. Headquarters retains the approval authority. Financial and operating risks are allocated through the agreed route,not hidden behind a generic promise. **One accountable manufacturer-side operator.** Local retail execution · Defined decision rights · Visible economics · Sell-out and replenishment follow-through. No unnecessary automatic resale margin. No requirement to build a full subsidiary before the business case justifies it. The next executive conversation ## Which operating model makes sense for your brand? Let's examine your current South American coverage, product readiness, channel economics and the roles your team already performs,before discussing a mandate.
