Island Vintage coffee shop is void of baked goods until 9am. So, you sell them baked goods and deliver at 6:15am. Thus, you become a &#8220;second supplier (cookie seller) gambit&#8221;. The customer, &#8220;Island Vintage coffee&#8221; near Starwood Hotel Royal Hawaiian, only pays for baked goods that sell prior to 9am. Zero risk to them.Zero risk for them.Zero money paid for baked goods they do not sell. Think of it, your &#8216;business&#8217; as &#8220;Muffins on Consignment&#8221;.
