Bar Supplies and Accessories – Get Stocked up for the World Cup
Bar Supplies and Accessories Get Stocked up for the World Cup
With the FIFA World Cup around the corner there is expected to be a much needed increase in pub-goers during the period. This is great news for the pub and bar industry but the tournament won't last forever so many publicans are ensuring they make the most of the increase in trade.
By taking advantage of the World Cup Tournament it is hoped that many pubs and bars that have been struggling over the recent economic problems can manage to turn their businesses around. However, planning is vital if you want to make a success of the World Cup period and increase your revenue.
World Cup promotions will bring customers through the door and many bar and pub owners are stocking up before the tournament starts. However, while they may be increasing their wet-stock deliveries, many are neglecting to ensure they have enough bar supplies and bar equipment.
Don't forget the paper towels
Increase in Numbers
The increase in trade should see more stock sold and hopefully more revenue but there will also be an increase in usage. Stock levels of everything will need to be considered and a whole host of extra bar equipment will need to be increased in order to cope with the demand.
For instance, if you are offering bottled drink promotions you will need to consider another bottle skip or may find yourself knee deep in empty bottles. Extra waste bins will also be good idea as you may find them getting full rather too quickly.
If you serve food you may find that you don't have enough cutlery or plates to satisfy the demand. Dishwashers only works so fast so make sure you order cutlery enough and kitchen equipment before the tournament starts.
You have to consider the extra usage of the bathroom facilities too so ensure you have enough towels and other bathroom accessories.
Staff levels during this time will also have to be increased so this may pose other problems such as scheduling breaks and such like. However, remember that during the matches themselves there will always be a lull in trade so it's a good time to issue breaks or prepare for the half time surge.
Also remember with more people behind the bar they will be using more bar accessories so ensure you have extra corkscrews, measures, ice buckets and other bar equipment.
