The Nature of This Relationship

Omniworld’s relationship with Cavendish & Harvey is an agency relationship — meaning Omniworld holds official agency authorization from the manufacturer to represent and supply this brand in the Taiwan market.

Agency and import distribution are two distinct arrangements. An agency relationship means the importer holds formal authorization from the brand owner. Import distribution means the importer purchases and supplies the product to retail channels without necessarily holding brand authorization. Omniworld clearly labels which type of relationship applies to each brand it works with, so readers are not left to guess.
