Who is a vendor and its role in business?
The vendor is a supplier who supplies goods to a business to initiate sales. A supplier can be a person or an entity. We will cover here the vendor’s role in business and what is the good time for both vendor and buyer to buy goods.
Many businesses fail because they buy goods at overprice whereas, many consumers’ minds paying overpricing. There are three factors which are to be considered when planning to purchase products either to buy or sell.
- Are you facing inflation? Both vendors and consumers do not excess purchases to avoid paying overpricing.
- Are you facing deflation? Both vendors, and consumers like to have more purchases because the prices are lower than the normal. The consumer will save money now, whereas vendor will make money later.
- Do you have stable GDP? Buying from a local producer is in the favor of both the buyers and suppliers to keep the GDP rate stabled and their businesses as well.
