Business Supplies are a series of Biker missions featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Bikers update.
Description[]
Business Supplies are required to keep the production of various illegal substances and/or counterfeit cash running. When supplies are obtained, staff will begin to produce stock.
When inside a business, the player can see two bars at the bottom right of the HUD, one for Stock and another for Supplies; both are broken up into five segments. When supplies are brought into the biker business, the level of supplies will go up.
During the production of stock, the bar of supplies will gradually decrease. Production rates vary between business types, but can be improved through installing upgrades. Each business is able to hold stock levels of varying amounts.
Buy Supplies[]
Buying supplies is a simple way of obtaining supplies. Buying supplies does not start a mission, and only requires the player to click a button on the web page. When purchased, the MC President needs to wait around ten minutes before the stock is delivered. LJT will notify them when the supplies are delivered, and will also remind the player that buying supplies yields less profit then stealing them.
Buying supplies varies in price, and is dependent of how much supplies are still present in the business at the time of purchase. This can vary between $15,000 and $75,000.
Steal Supplies[]

The other way of obtaining supplies can be by stealing them. Stealing supplies is free of charge, but often requires lengthy drives and carefulness upon delivering. Supplies can be stolen in the Resupply menu of The Open Road. Once selected, the player will immediately spawn outside the business. LJT will call the player to give them information about the mission.
There are many variants of Steal Missions, and the game chooses one at random. Some missions can also have multiple possible locations around the map. During these missions, the Motorcycle Club will be tasked with stealing either individual packages of supplies, which are carried by players, or a vehicle containing supplies. Each package of supplies gives one bar of supplies, but a delivered vehicle gives two.
Playing with multiple MC members in encouraged, as more packages of supplies or vehicles will spawn if not starting the mission solo.
Unlike Vehicle Cargo or Special Cargo supply missions, stealing supplies has no cooldown timer after delivery, although the player cannot start another resupply mission if the supply levels are at the maximum.
Sell Supplies[]

Once the player's business has created stock from gathered supplies, they are able to export it to buyers. The sell missions work very similar to Bunker Sell Missions.
When deciding to sell supplies, the president must choose whether they want to sell in Los Santos or Blaine County. Choosing the location where that business is not located will add a 50% bonus value to their current stock.
There are multiple types of delivery missions available, and the game will choose one at random; some are only available with multiple MC members. For most of them, the amount of delivery vehicles is dependent on how much stock is being sold.
