What is a distribution agreement?

A distribution agreement is a contract between two parties in which one party agrees to purchase and sell products from the other. This type of agreement is most commonly used in the context of art law in Kansas. In terms of art law, a distribution agreement is an agreement that allows one party to become the exclusive distributor of the other party’s artwork in a certain region. This agreement specifies which party is the artist, the distributor, and the territory in which the artwork will be sold. This agreement may also specify any rights and duties that each party has when it comes to handling, selling, or distributing the artwork. The artist has the right to set the terms of the agreement and may decide to have the distributor pay the artist directly for the artwork, or they may have the distributor pay a commission on the sales. The distributor is then responsible for marketing and selling the artwork in the territory that they are given. The artist should make sure that the distributor is reliable and trustworthy before finalizing the agreement. The details of a distribution agreement will differ depending on the parties involved and the artwork being distributed. It is important to read through the agreement and make sure that both parties are comfortable with the terms before finalizing the agreement.
