If I'm reading this correctly, I think you have two sentence fragments: "supply and demand of commodities and utilities" and "supply and demand to the wares and utilities". The first of the two fragments is the better one, but you need to complete the sentence with a verb. How about something like this "Monitoring the supply and demand of commodities and utilities helps determine the success of a business."

No this is not proper English grammar. It is a sentence fragment and it asks a question, but the subject of the question is unclear. The second part of the phrase "or supply and demand to the wares and utilities" is also bad grammar. It should be consistent in its comparison to the first part of the phrase - "suppy and demand 'of.'"

The example you've provided is not actually a sentence, but rather two fragments joined together. If you're asking which of the fragments is correct, I'd suggest that 'supply and demand of commodities and utilities' is.

I don't think it's a proper english concept, but rather you're asking if it's proper in particular industry.
Both look OK to me.

No, it is not even a complete sentence.
