Abstract

Manufacturer-reseller relationships are increasingly becoming technology-infused as distribution managers are employing e-business tools to streamline existing channels. This research examines the antecedents of perceived inequity of sharing the benefits of e-business tools by the manufacturers, relationship performance and the moderating role of reseller dependence. The results of the empirical test involving a sample of 224 resellers suggest that perceived inequity negatively impacts relationship performance, while reseller dependence play a moderating role. Implications of these findings for researchers and managers are discussed.
