Its rather a conclusion
>retail still works the same way it always has>acts as an intermediary, just pushing more store brands now>private labels improved because the factories are doing better financially>factories that produce for store brands have gotten steady, large orders>that extra income lets them improve quality, invest in better production>so even cheap “store brand” stuff often comes from well-established factories>maybe retail isn’t just a parasitic middleman after allmight actually be helping manufacturers grow
