bulk supply
Large-scale inventory purchase
Bulk supply refers to the provision of goods, materials, or utilities in large quantities, typically at wholesale prices or for redistribution rather than end-user consumption.
The term appears frequently in contexts involving electricity, water, or commodities sold to intermediaries who then distribute to retail customers.
The water authority negotiated a bulk supply agreement with neighboring municipalities.
In commercial contexts, bulk supply arrangements often involve long-term contracts and reduced per-unit costs.
