Working with commercial agents is a way in which products and services can be distributed with the help of others. Another well-known form of resale is (exclusive or selective) distribution.

Commercial agents have historically been a common feature in several industries such as clothing and shoes, all kinds of household goods and furniture. In recent years, however, agency has attracted increasing attention, among others in the automotive sector and in relation to the emerging online platform economy.
