Bulk purchases - entendo como compradores em atacado (talvez "sacoleiros"), mas não seria o mesmo que "wholesalers" (atacadistas)?

Compradores em atacado/de grandes quantidade


Explanation:
"Bulk purchasing is the purchase of much larger quantities than the usual, for a unit price that is lower than the usual. Wholesaling is selling goods in large quantities at a low unit price to retail merchants." Fonte: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_purchasing

Portanto, um seria comprar, outro vender. Logo, eu usaria a expressão que você utilizou, "compradores em atacado". Não necessariamente são sacoleiros, pois essa palavra tem um sentido mais pejorativo. Outra opção seria uma "compradores de grandes quantidades" (ou "de grandes volumes"), embora fique mais extenso.

Tem um errinho do plural do título de minha segunda opção. Conforme disse acima, a segunda opção seria "compradores de grandes quantidades".

Penso que compradores a granel cabe bem neste contexto pois contrastaria bem com as outras modalidades 'resellers' e 'wholesalers' e é também mais abrangente (podendo ser compradores de commodities) conforme o texto sugere.

Produtos a granel são mercadorias, cargas e suprimentos armazenados ou transportados em grandes quantidades, no seu estado bruto, sem embalagens fracionadas. São produtos que não podem ser ensacados ou encaixotados, sendo transportados em contêineres e caminhões específicos para cada caso.
