I feel like the retailer and suppliers are the key players in VMI, so I would go with B as well.

I’m a bit confused because I thought retail consumers had some influence in VMI, but I guess they don't really set inventory levels.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it was about the collaboration between the retailer and suppliers. So, I’m leaning towards B.

I think the answer might be B, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the retailer and suppliers or if the buyers play a role too.
