Seasoning production area is also a purchase channel. Those places specialize in the production of spices and have a large inventory, which is the place where many seasoning merchants purchase goods.
Advantages:
1, the quality is good, and the seasoning quality in the producing area is generally better than that in other places, which is more popular with consumers.
2. The price is low, and there are a lot of spices in the producing area, so the so-called goods are worthless. Therefore, the purchase price in the producing area must be particularly cheap.
3. Adequate supply. Operators don't have to worry about shortage at all, so they can supply goods in time and solve the shortage problem.

If you want to ensure that the variety of spices in your store is complete, you may have to purchase from many places, so it is difficult to do centralized procurement, which is time-consuming and laborious.
3, the loss is large, and it is inevitable that there will be loss during transportation, which will also increase the cost.
