A stockist is a shop or company that keeps a certain product and sells it. If a company makes a shampoo, the shops that carry that shampoo are its stockists. The word looks at the shop from the maker's side: you are a stockist OF something, and that something is almost always another company's product.

So you hear it most on a maker's website or on a package — 'for your nearest stockist, call this number' — and much less in normal talk. A person can be called a stockist too, but usually it means the business, not one worker.

So you hear it most所以你最常聽到它 on a maker's website or on a package在製造商的網站上或包裝上——'for your nearest stockist, call this number'像『for your nearest stockist, call this number』（要找離你最近的經銷商，打這支電話）——and much less in normal talk日常對話裡就少很多。A person can be called a stockist too一個人也可以被叫做stockist，but usually it means the business, not one worker但通常指的是那間公司，不是某個員工。
