Factory-to-consumer (F2C) describes commerce transactions between a manufacturer and a consumer. Contrasting terms are business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C).

Consumers can (individual or in group) buy large quantities directly from the factory. For example, large private constructions or events.
