So when a restocker goes to the market they let you know what they are going to grab

How do you think they should notify the player?

Via notification (same way you’re notified that a stand or machine needs refilled)

Icon over their head maybe?

Yha that would be a way. Like the icon or telling you like the notification on the right side of the screen

I have difficulty understanding there being an option for vendors to restock in addition to a dedicated restocker. Especially when they can't synergize.
Maybe one possible solution would be to have overstocking. Overstocking is when there is 1 complete refill of a vending stall's item available for the vendor to immediately restock from.
When the Restocker employee is unlocked, overstocking is unlocked as well.
The restocker is signaled to get more supplies for the vendor once the vendor accesses their overstock supply.
In contrast, the vendor will not seek to get more stock until all of their item is completely depleted (whether or not they had overstocking/Restockers unlocked).
To compensate for the potential for a vending stall to have effectively 2 sets of stock before it is fully depleted, perhaps the amount of goods in a refill is reduced. I don't know, just an idea.

That would be an idea indeed maybe a little stock room for them to restock it
