"Attempted to develop a simple garner- theoretic framework to examine the
strategic consideration that underlines a retailer's decision to pass through a trade
deal. According to them in an environment where manufacturers offer trade
promotion, a retailer may not have the incentive to pass a low wholesale price on
to consumers because consumers do not have perfect information about on-going
trade promotions. However, if the retailer never passes savings on, consumers can
infer opportunistic pricing based on prior knowledge of trade promotion frequency
and have a higher tendency to shop elsewhere. The extent of retailer opportunism
depends on product-market characteristics, such as the retailer's clientele and the
heterogeneity of consumer search cost as well as the characteristics of the
manufacturer's trade promotion policy like the frequency of trade promotion and
depth of discount offered.
