A trading company is one that sells directly to a consumer, while a distribution company distributes produce to the trading company. A shipping company (like where I work) is a company that does exactly that. We ship things, whether to a trading company, distribution company or to a private consumer. Hope that helps.

trading company:
a company that buys and sell a product or a number of products
a distribution company:
a company that distributes the good to its owners after being purchased by the consumer
a shipping company:
a company that ships the good from 1 point to another
difference between distribution and shipping is that in ditribution a single type of product to a number of consumers in a limited area as for shipping a number of products to a limited number of buyers in a large area
