Circumstances exist where utilizing a particular fragrance marketplace may not align with optimal strategies. A vendor’s specific inventory requirements or the platform’s fee structure for low-volume transactions can be valid reasons to explore alternative channels. For example, a business exclusively seeking bulk orders of a niche scent from a single supplier might find direct engagement with that supplier more efficient.
Judicious evaluation of marketplace suitability can contribute to resource efficiency and maximized profitability. Historically, businesses have relied on direct sourcing to bypass intermediary costs and establish stronger supplier relationships. This direct approach remains relevant in scenarios where the marketplace’s added value is minimal or even detrimental to the desired outcome.
