2. Source from Reliable Hospitality Suppliers
Look for suppliers that specialize in hotel-grade tableware for luxury hospitality environments. Working with UAE-based suppliers ensures faster delivery timelines, easier communication, and better after-sales service.
At Elite Hospitality, we provide customized solutions for restaurants, hotels, and resorts across the UAE — from bespoke dinnerware sets to high-volume orders.
3. Negotiate for Long-Term Contracts
Hospitality decision-makers should leverage purchasing power by negotiating:
-
Volume discounts for larger orders
-
Flexible payment terms
-
Free replacements or sample sets
-
Loyalty pricing for repeat orders
Don’t hesitate to request a service-level agreement (SLA) to clarify delivery schedules, replacements, and warranty conditions.
4. Consolidate Orders Across Properties
Hotel chains and restaurant groups with multiple locations in the UAE should consolidate their tableware procurement to:
-
Reduce overall logistics cost
-
Ensure design and quality consistency
-
Build stronger negotiating leverage with suppliers
This strategy works particularly well for procurement managers of hotel groups operating in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
5. Plan for Seasonal Demand & Replacements
High seasons in the UAE — such as Ramadan, tourist peaks, and Expo events — can drive unexpected demand. Keep a buffer stock or plan orders accordingly to avoid last-minute shortages.
Also, track breakage rates to determine realistic reorder quantities on an annual or semi-annual basis.
