Yes, you can set up a chain using independent suppliers, however, you will need several stages of production. There are independent suppliers for the following:
 
Grain
Sugar
Cocoa
Grapes
Cotton
ALL natural resources (oil, coal, iron, etc) EXCEPT Timber

Build a warehouse to check availability and prices of supplies before investing in a factory.
You can check whatever you need to and then close the warehouse. If the warehouse is closed on the same day it was opened it will have zero costs.

You don't need to build anything to check available products and prices.
 
Just go to http://virtonomics.com/mary/main/globalreport/marketing/by_products ... and you can see which products are available. Sort by Quanity, Quality or Price according to your research needs. Quantity 0 of course means nothing is available. Independant suppliers are found by an unlimited supply, because no player has unlimited supply of course.
 
You will see when checking this page that you can get some raw materials cheaper than the independant suppliers are. I usually prefer to still use the independant suppliers, because they don't cancel deals on me without warning :p

Chris the link isn't right to look for supply. Just check wine it says in the link plenty of cheap suppliers but they don't sell it on the market. Maby if it's possible to paste a row available in the sheet than it's good but for now i can't rely on it
 
Tears No grocery chain

Hmmm interesting, it seems to show factory output as available no matter how many orders there are. I don't understand why some factories/warehouses show 0 then when they in fact have goods/produce goods. It seems you will have to click all subdivisions to see if actually something is available so you still don't need to build a warehouse to find available goods.

that's why Fractal suggests building a warehouse to check.  then the available supplies are real, and you don't need to check each subdivision to see if goods are available.
 
As Fractal said, close the warehouse before the next update and you will not be charged for rent.
 
in fact, if the goods are not plentiful, start ordering from the warehouse while your factory builds, then you're sure some supplies will be available when your factory finishes building.
 
i bought a few cheap factories in lien.  looks like they just got built, then the player realized there was no supplies for their specialization, and sold the factory.   using the warehouse method before i buy the factory, i know there are supplies if i change the specialization, so got the factories cheap.
