Customers prefers to deal with suppliers who has enough stock in there warehouses.  This means that this supplier is able to provide a faster delivery and can perform a better after-sales-service.

 

This also enables the customer to know that the product he/she is buying is still active and available in the market.

 

It will also allow the customer to know that the supplier is financially strong keeping enough stock in his/her warehouse.
