Bulk Buying (redirected from bulk-buys)

Bulk Buying

The act or practice of buying a large quantity of a good at once. This may occur at either the retail or the wholesale level. For example, a coffee shop purchases coffee in bulk because it needs to sell to its customers. An individual may buy the same amount simply because he/she does not want to go shopping for it very often. Bulk buying is often less expensive per unit because marginal costs tend to decrease the more a company produces or sells.
