Hmm, I think option C is the way to go. Large, expensive products with high demand would probably be best suited for a centralized distribution network to ensure efficient delivery.

But wouldn't a centralized distribution network be more efficient for small, inexpensive products?

This seems like a tricky question. I'm leaning towards option B, as heavy and inexpensive products with a short delivery time would likely benefit from a centralized distribution network.
