Guide discovery carts to supplier minimums
Buying intent can fade when a promising assortment still feels commercially incomplete.
Retailers often need enough flexibility to build a useful basket while suppliers need orders that work economically.
“I found things I like, but I can't justify stretching the order just to hit one minimum.”

What pulls against what
- supplier minimum integrity vs retailer flexibility
- fast recovery vs segment precision
- basket value vs assortment relevance
What is at stake
A clear path to a viable basket can recover orders that otherwise end at discovery. Delay leaves retailers with more browsing and fewer purchaseable assortments
Why Faire
At Faire, this often matters because discovery only creates value when it can become a practical wholesale order.
