Thus we say that middlemen today play a vital role in the transfer of goods from the producers to the consumers and moreover an important link between producers and ultimate consumers. In this situation, it is not possible for producers to have direct contact with the consumers. With the rapid development in the field of business activities, the business of today is not confined to a village or a city or a state. Some people say “Middlemen and Agents are nothing but social parasites and the sooner they are eliminated the better for the society.” In our own opinion to say like that is not just, because in the age of ‘division of labour’ and ‘specialisation’, the existence of middlemen is a must. Merchant does buying and reselling but agent may specialize in negotiations of either selling or buying transactions. If he does, then he is a merchant otherwise he is an agent. Hence the difference between the two lies in the ‘title of goods’ he handles.
