Answer and Explanation:

The traditional adversarial relationship with suppliers would change when a firm makes a decision to move to the new suppliers. The firm would focus more on the channels that provides more growth prospects.

Firms seek to build long term relationships with the few suppliers. Such long run relationship makes it more likely to recognize the specific objectives of the acquiring firm and the end customer.
