Definition
Businesses authorized to sell particular brands of products, especially automobiles, on behalf of manufacturers.
Etymology
From 'dealer' (from deal, Old English dǣlan 'to divide, distribute') plus -ship suffix indicating state or condition. The automotive dealership model emerged in the early 20th century to distribute cars efficiently across geographic regions.
Kelly Says
The dealership model was revolutionary because it solved the problem of how to sell complex, expensive products requiring service and support across vast distances. This business structure became so successful that it was adopted for everything from farm equipment to musical instruments.
