Change the word "Supplier" in the translated string in the .po file and compile and use the .mo file.

Here is what I used in bash:

grep "Supplier" empty.po > msgid.txt
grep "Supplier" empty.po | sed -e "s/Supplier/Vendor/g" | sed -e "s/^msgid/msgstr/g" > msgstr.txt
msgunfmt -i en_US.mo -o en_US.po
## Append the output of the following to en_US.po
exec 6<"msgstr.txt"
while read -r line
do
    read -r f2line <&6
    echo
    echo "${line}"
    echo "${f2line}"
done <"msgid.txt"
exec 6<&-
## Re-compile the .mo file
msgfmt en_US.po -o en_US.mo

The resultant output is attached for use.
