Why is it that some Foodstalls/Cafe’s sell out of their product everyday, but never decide to get more stock for each day?

This confuses and infuriates me, lots of Food vans/stalls where i live have special niche’s such as selling croissants etc, and these places make an absolute KILLING and run out of stock so very early in the day, yet they never seem to decide to just have more ready for the day?

It doesnt make sense to me, it would increase profit, only difficulty i see is that its a risk that they dont need to take.

As you said, they sell out and make a killing, so as a vendor it makes sense to make an limited amount to what they are comfortable in committing to each day than having to worry about left overs. demand is there. And with limited supply people will likely be more proactive in getting it early. They make a profit they are comfortable with and get to call an early day. Makes sense for a small business owner.
