This paper proposes an inventroy management method extended to Vender Managed Inventory.The inventory management method is also introduced to a farmers market,which is an agricultural producers cooperative corporation in Iwate.A key characteristic of farmersmarkets is a distribution system without intermediate wholesalers and retailers between farmers and consumers.Each farmer prepares an manages his products in the store for sale. The information systems that can support the inventory management at the farmers market have been developed. The developed information systems have been introduced to an actual farmers market and achieved about 10% increase in annual sales. Then a business framework for farmers markets are proposed and the implementation of these information systems into our business framework at the farmers market are reflected. The results provide guidelines to the inventory management that can be collaborated among suppliers.
