Maelezo
The main reason that many will argue that middlemen should be elimination from the channel of distribution is related to the extra costs involved in employing them. Everyone is in business to make profits. The middle men would add a portion of their profits before selling to retailers, the retailers would also increase the price in order to profit off it before selling to the final consumer.
This process makes the price of goods high and expensive.
