bulk quantities
Large volume purchases
Bulk quantities are large amounts of goods, typically purchased or sold together at reduced per-unit prices.
The term appears in wholesale, manufacturing, and retail contexts where volume discounts apply: We save money by ordering office supplies in bulk quantities.
Buying in bulk quantities usually means foregoing individual packaging in favor of economy.
