What are the supermarket purchase channels?

It is a common channel for small and medium-sized supermarkets to purchase daily necessities, food, drinks and other fast-moving products by contacting brand agents. Buying through an agent has no requirement on the quantity of a single purchase, which is the most convenient and easy way to purchase goods.

Step 2 contact the manufacturer directly

If you want to get the goods at a lower price, you can choose to contact the commodity manufacturers directly and inform them of their purchasing intentions. You want to cooperate with them for a long time and let the manufacturers supply you at the ex-factory price. However, some manufacturers will refuse to supply small purchases to supermarkets, which requires more efforts.

3. Go to the local market for wholesale

The advantages of purchasing goods from local wholesale markets or farmers' markets are that there are all kinds of goods, you can shop around, the number of goods is not limited, the transportation cost is low, and you can get more favorable prices and on-site services through negotiation.

4. Participate in retail related exhibitions.

Operators can place orders directly at the exhibition through retail-related exhibitions, collect the contact information of manufacturers and agents, and exchange supermarket management experience with peers. For example, the daily necessities fair, the national sugar and wine fair, the Canton Fair and so on.

5. Buy from online channels

Now the sources of all kinds of goods can be found online. It is also a good choice to order through regular e-commerce websites or official website with brand names. For example, Alibaba, JD.COM Supermarket, Tmall Supermarket and Amazon.
