🏭 Procurement Tiers & Channels
Where you shop dictates your ultimate ledger footprint. Thai distribution vectors scale across three clear operational categories:
Highest margin efficiencies for raw proteins, herbs, and agricultural produce. Lowest pricing threshold, cash-only operations.
Balanced baseline pricing models. Bundles packaged international goods alongside standard domestic shelf stables under one roof.
Carries massive premium markup layers due to air freight and international importing overheads. Crucial for specific Western brands.
