Using the statistical t-test, the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities of distribution channels of Kerman province’s pistachio were identified and then prioritized with relative weights of approved strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities. Then, with an analysis of SWOT, breakthroughs were devised to improve distribution channels of Kerman’s pistachio and finally based on the internal-external factors matrix, the current status of distribution channels of Kerman’s pistachio was defined and the best strategy for implementation was suggested. According to the results, the best strategy at present is a defensive WT one.
