# Manage favorite wholesalers

Use [Vendors](/reference/purchasing/vendors.md) to keep your frequently used wholesaler locations easy to choose.

## Add a favorite

1. Open **Purchasing > Vendors**.
2. Click **Add Favorite Wholesaler**.
3. Search for and select the wholesaler and location you use.
4. Click **Submit** to add the location to your favorites.

Check the location as well as the business name. An online supplier may display its website instead of a city.

## Add a missing vendor or location

If the vendor search has no match, select **Add vendor?**. Enter the business **Name** and any useful **Email**, **Phone**, and **URL**, then click **Create**. FlowerBuddy then asks for the vendor's location.

For a missing location on an existing vendor, select **Add location?** from the location search. Choose **Brick & Mortar** for a physical address or **Online Only** for a website. Complete the required address fields or website URL, add the supplier's contact details, and click **Create**. Back in the Vendor dialog, click **Submit** to save the selected location as a favorite.

Search first so you do not create another entry for a supplier or location that already exists.

## Choose the default

Under **My Other Wholesalers**, click the star marked **Make Default Wholesaler** beside the location you want. It moves to the **Default Wholesaler** position.

Use this for your usual supplier, while retaining other favorites for items you source elsewhere. It does not retroactively replace the vendors on saved purchase orders.

## Remove a favorite

Click **Remove Favorited Wholesaler**, the trash icon beside the location. Review **Delete Favorited Wholesaler?**, then click **Delete**.

This removes the location from your favorites. Existing purchasing records are separate, so manage any order changes from the [Orders tab](/reference/purchasing/orders.md).
