Sourcing & selling guides
Useful answers for publishing a catalogue, comparing suppliers and receiving your first purchase. Pick a task and follow it through.
Pack sizes and minimum orders: make the numbers unambiguous
Explain cartons, individual units and minimum quantities so buyers request the right amount and compare wholesale offers fairly.
Keep your wholesale prices current without confusing buyers
Set sensible validity dates, review changed prices and withdraw unavailable products so the public catalogue reflects what you can offer.
How to respond to a wholesale order request
Use accept, reject and revised quotes to keep buyer and supplier aligned before a market request becomes a purchase order.
Delivery terms that prevent wholesale order surprises
Write lead times, delivery charges and handover arrangements clearly before a shop places its request.
Your first wholesale order: a supplier’s checklist
Follow one order from a reviewed listing to agreement, dispatch and the buyer’s receiving workflow.
Compare wholesale prices per unit, not per carton
A practical method for comparing supplier offers when cartons, bag sizes and minimum quantities differ.
Calculate the cost of a supplier order before you commit
Combine merchandise, delivery and applicable tax to compare what you would actually pay for a restock.
Match a supplier product to your stock item with confidence
Use product identifiers, size and units to avoid receiving the right name into the wrong stock record.
From supplier quote to a linked purchase order
Follow the agreement, product mapping and purchase-order steps without confusing a request with a confirmed purchase.
Receive a partial supplier delivery without losing the balance
Record what actually arrived, keep the remaining quantity visible and reconcile the delivery against your purchase order.
Restock without letting a low price become excess stock
Balance demand, existing stock, open purchase orders and supplier pack sizes before sending your next request.
