At least with Walmart, the argument could be made that these deals provide more outlets for consumer purchase to the end user (my own opinion aside). In the case of Kee, the retailer just deals with KEE instead of Crossfire. KEE isn't opening stores for the end user to shop at, right? Perhaps it gets tanks into a few more existing reailers, but what is the BIG benefit for Crossfire?
This kind of deal very well may be happening with Crossfire and KEE. I don't deny the possibility. As I said, I am unfamiliar with KEE's past. Until now I just thought they were a distributor, and they did that; distribute.
