What's the difference between agency and investment promotion?

In international trade, commercial agency refers to a trade mode in which the consignor or manufacturer (the consignor) entrusts the specified goods to foreign customers for consignment within a specified area and time limit. Its practice is that the principal signs an agency agreement with the agent, authorizing the agent to buy and sell goods to a third party within a certain range or handle related affairs on his behalf, such as signing contracts and other transactions; The rights and obligations arising from the agent's behavior within the scope of the principal's authorization have direct effect on the principal, that is, the agent acts in the name of the principal within the scope of authorization. The agent and the principal belong to the entrustment relationship, not the buying and selling relationship. Agents represent the management of enterprises, not buying out the products of enterprises, but helping manufacturers sell a certain number of products. The ownership of goods belongs to the producer, not to the merchant.

Investment promotion can be simply explained as the relationship between people, which is a choice and a substitute. According to the Commercial Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Commercial Law of China, attracting investment means that the employer releases its services and products to a certain extent in order to attract businesses to develop together. Investment promotion methods include: advertising, salesman visit, outsourcing and crowdsourcing.

Investment promotion and agency are completely different concepts, each with its own advantages. Dealers have greater freedom and are not subject to too many constraints from enterprises. However, the protection of agents is relatively more, and there is no risk of accumulation of goods. In fact, the distinction between dealers and agents is not very clear in reality, it changes with the actual situation, so don't deliberately distinguish it. As long as the rights and obligations are clearly defined in the contract.
