Spending money to improve protective packaging may be necessary, but it usually results in higher total distribution costs for a firm's product.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

Better protective packaging helps manufacturers and wholesalers, because they have to pay the cost of goods damaged in shipment. Retailers need protective packaging too, to help reduce storing costs by cutting breakage, spoilage, and theft. Good packages also save space and weight so they are easier to transport, handle, display, and they are better for the environment. In summary, packaging may lower distribution costs.
