Bus/Financial - Transport / Transportation / Shipping
Spanish term or phrase: canal directo
Estoy traduciendo unas facturas de una empresa que vende equipos electrónicos. Entre los datos que se incluyen en la factura están:

"Nombre o razón social
Código de cliente
RIF
NIT
Dirección
Dirección de entrega
Teléfonos
Fax
Transporte: **Canal directo**
Chofer
Vendedor
Ruta"

Tengo problemas con la busqueda en proz que no me permite encontrar combinación de palabras. ¿Alguien sabe a qué se puede referir "canal directo" en el contexto de transporte? En las demás facturas, dice "transporte: [nombre de una empresa]

Muchas gracias por adelantado

Direct Channel: This is when your own sales force sells to the customer. Your company may ship to the customer, or a third party may handle shipment, but in either case, your company owns the sales contract and retains rights to the receivable from the customer. Your end customer may be a retail outlet. The movement to the customer may be direct from the factory, or the product may move through a distribution network owned by your company. Order information in this channel may be transmitted by electronic means.

HTH!
