Those who benefit are usually the marketing companies that sell their products all over the world. They tend to lead everyone else and end up reaping the majority of their export revenue. In addition to producers benefiting from globalization, consumers also benefit as they can easily go to the nearest mall to purchase the product they want. Workers, however, tend to be the opposite. They are the ones who suffer the most due to their working conditions, insufficient support for themselves and their family, as well as low pay after long working hours. Timmerman had expressed this by saying: “There is a long chain of actors from producer to consumer. It is made up of workers, labor sharks, factories, subcontractors, unions, governments, purchasing companies, middlemen, middlemen for middlemen, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), importers, exporters, brands, department stores, and you and me. Everyone takes a cut. Some respect the rules; some don't. Exploitation can occur at any level, except one: workers are in no position to exploit anyone.” (Timmerman, page 7). This imbalance in profits has led to unfair rights for many people, and continues today
