Record the offer you actually see
A useful vendor observation includes location, item, quantity, unit price and build. Also note any displayed relationship or event context. This keeps a local discount from becoming a misleading universal price.
- Confirm whether prices are per unit or batch.
- Record the inventory receiving the purchase.
- Keep empty stock and unavailable items in the observation.
Relationships can have an economic effect
The official Q&A provides repeat purchases as an example of a vendor relationship affecting price. It gives no universal percentage, threshold or required spend. Track changes over time before deciding a longer journey is justified.
- Vendor / greenhouse / catch
- Kitchen stock
- Recipe + equipment
- Menu serving
Confirmed broad connections; exact ingredient and equipment mappings remain unverified.
A vendor can support more than one job
A route may combine kitchen purchases, greenhouse machinery or furniture shopping when nearby sellers support those needs. Use the source optimizer for comparable ingredient quantities and the route planner for your observed stops. Do not assume one shop stocks every category.
