CANNING INDUSTRY

CANNING INDUSTRY. While societies have preserved foods through

drying, smoking, sugaring, freezing, and salting for hundreds of years,
the ability to safely store and ship food in glass and metal canisters
dates only to the early 1800s. During a series of military campaigns,
Napoleon realized his troops were falling victim to scurvy and other
diseases that resulted from poor diets, and he needed to provide a
broader array of foods to troops often engaged in distant battles. In
1795, the French government promised to pay 12,000 francs for a
process that would deliver safe and healthful food to its soldiers.

Foods that must be pressure canned include most vegetables,

meat, seafood, poultry, and dairy products. The only foods that may
be safely canned in an ordinary boiling water bath are highly acidic
ones with a pH below 4.6, such as fruits, pickled vegetables, or
other foods to which acidic additives.

Marketing intermediaries: the

distribution channel
Many producers do not sell products or services directly to consumers and instead
use marketing intermediaries to execute an assortment of necessary functions to get
the product to the final user. These intermediaries, such as middlemen (wholesalers,
retailers, agents, and brokers), distributors, or financial intermediaries, typically
enter into longer-term commitments with the producer and make up what is known
as the marketing channel, or the channel of distribution. Manufacturers use raw ma-
terials to produce finished products, which in turn may be sent directly to the re-
tailer, or, less often, to the consumer. However, as a general rule, finished goods flow
from the manufacturer to one or more wholesalers before they reach the retailer and,
finally, the consumer. Each party in the distribution channel usually acquires
legal possession of goods during their physical transfer, but this is not always the
case. For instance, in consignment selling, the producer retains full legal owner-
ship even though the goods may be in the hands of the wholesaler or retailer—that is,
until the merchandise reaches the final user or consumer.
Channels of distribution tend to be more direct—that is, shorter and simpler—in
the less industrialized nations. There are notable exceptions, however. For instance,
