a supply
Explanation:
Pretty sure we've had this before, so it ought to show up in a term search.

In some contexts, you might find that 'a feed' would read better — and is arguably perhaps a little closer to a literal translation.

I think you have a typo there, I believe it should be 'amenée' (cf. 'arrivée' etc.) — if you do a term search on that, you will find several other useful options to choose from...
The clue, of course, is in the article: 'UNE amenée'
