Belarus Bans Wholesale Trade

The Byelorussian government issued a decree directing Byelorussian companies to buy any goods, including imported ones, only from those goods manufacturers or manufacturers’ commercial representatives (dealers), rather than from independent wholesalers or commercial intermediaries. This seems to effectively ban all wholesale trade in Belarus. Experts opine that the main purpose of the move is restricting imports to Belarus with a view to improve its trade balance.
