Correct choices:
- by improving the distribution of products
- by encouraging the exchange of goods and services
- by changing the way companies create products

Why: Faster, cheaper, and more reliable transport expands markets and lowers shipping costs, so firms can distribute goods widely and trade internationally. That enables global exchange of goods and services and the development of global supply chains — firms redesign production (outsourcing, just‑in‑time, component sourcing across countries).

“Encouraging the quick sale of goods” is the weakest option — transportation speeds delivery and can shorten lead times, but “quick sale” is a byproduct rather than a primary effect.
