Credit and Re-stocking practices<br />
Thirty-nine percent of respondents said they purchased their merchandise from marketplaces,<br />
while a narrow majority (52%) had some other distributor. When asked how frequently they<br />
purchased new stock, a strong plurality (45%) said every two weeks, while 15% said once per<br />
week, and 24% said one or more times per week. Five (15.15%)of the respondents reported<br />
purchasing less than once every two weeks (Table 2). The vast majority of respondents (27 out of<br />
33, or 82%) reported offering customers the option of buying on credit (Figure 9). The most<br />
commonly cited factor influencing customer choices in purchases was price (named by 12, or 36%<br />
of respondents), followed by healthfulness (8, or 24%) and familiarity (7, or 21%). Quality was<br />
only named as the primary factor by 3, or 9% of respondents (Figure 10).
