How do I plan consumable supplies?

The answer

Estimate usage from guest count, stay length, and the items you promise. Define what is supplied initially and whether longer stays receive replenishment. Store stock securely and set reorder points.

Running out can create a disproportionate service problem, while excessive unsecured stock can be wasted. Clear listing and house-guide information helps align expectations with your replenishment process.

This answer is general education. Apply it to the property's actual location, agreements, and circumstances. Where a decision requires professional advice, use a qualified adviser.
