@Chibson that's correct and the first thing to do is write a proposal letter to hotel owners, set an appointment. I think they do it through bidding. So the business providers for a hotel must join the bidding.
you are actually very right on that. I think you can do this when the hotel is still at the building stage. You can send a proposal letter very early so that you will be the first person to do so.

That is the first thing to do to outsmart others. And it is also good to make friends with hotel contractors to recommend you to the hotel owner. It's building trust.

You are totally correct on that. You have to make friends with the contractors and from there your chances of getting the contract will be high. Sometimes you can even decide to give them some percentage if you get the job.

Yes as a commission, but better invite that contractor for a free dinner. It will be more professional. That way you can have a good talk on what the hotel owner possibly orders.

Yes, inviting him for a dinner will be more professional. I agree with you on that. It will even make them to know that you are very much serious about the business and you can deliver if you are given the contract.

That way the contractor can be your backer. His connection to the hotel owner is of great advantage. There is give and take. The hotel owner cannot refuse the recommendations.

Most hotels don't sublet those items if it is what you are saying. Hotels buy those items by themselves. Though some five star hotels do sublet but in rare cases. Secondly, it is difficult to come across that kind of business.

Definitely, this is actually the simple truth. Anybody who the contractor recommends will actually be accepted by the hotel owner. That is the major reason why you need to take immediate action if you only want to get the job.

This is the most effective way of convincing the hotel owner through the building contractor. They knew each other for so long and trust is built between the two. It is very logical.

yes this is a lucrative business, the only place you might have a little challenge is getting them to buy from you cause definitely they would have others supplying them even before you.

Hotels require supplies like Towels, soaps, door mats, curtains, pillows, bed sheet, blankets and bathroom supplies and mostly they buy in bulk and keep these in stock so I feel it can be considered as a good business but we need good amount of capital investment and also a manufacture dealing in these.
I have been involved in hotel supply business in the past and what I actually supplied some of the hotels that I had as my clients was the detergent that they used for the dry cleaning services.

This is why there is always competition in every kind of business that you do so that you will know exactly how to be the best in what you are offering so that your services will always be patronised.

In my country the business of selling ready to eat cooked foods is very profitable. I have seen so many people starting and running it hustle freely. The most good thing with it is that it requires a smaller amount of capital to start.

In order to make this a successful business we need to have engagement with different hotels so that we will have regular customers and that's how we can make good profits

@Ginger that is the most feasible thing to do to be able to capture the interests of the hotel owners. The business man must not hesitate to approach the hotel owners to build trust and friendship.

It's a very good business as you need to provide them with all the hotel supplies like Soaps, towels, bed sheets, curtains etc and need to maintain stock and good relationship with customers and suppliers

Submitting a proposal to the hotel before supplying things would be better.
By the way, hope you have your word counter because we are required to write 30 words under reply posts and 90 words under posts thread. There is a memo of that from the site owner. I am so worried, your posts might be deleted if below the required words. And that is right we must write a letter of proposal to hotel owners for a proper transaction of business.
