description Competing manufacturers, who sell their products through retailers, may face the strategic distribution channel design question of whether to establish an “store-within-store” channel or not.

We built four game models corresponding to four channel strategies, and discussed the influence of manufacture's bargaining power coefficient, prices competition intensity, and sales effort competition intensity on manufactures' channel strategies.
