How buying works today
The usual route to an order.
Retailers and caterers combine cash-and-carry visits, delivery wholesalers, sales reps, phone and messaging orders and supplier apps, often placing several orders a week. Some lines are bought opportunistically when a promotion appears, so the weekly basket is rebuilt by hand across more than one supplier.
Where it breaks down
What slows buyers down.
- 01Frequent orders across several suppliers with unclear availability.
- 02Promotions are missed because they are hard to see at the point of ordering.
- 03Minimum-order thresholds and fixed delivery days constrain each order.
- 04Price changes and short-dated stock catch buyers out.
- 05Baskets are rebuilt manually every week.
