Starting point
What the business actually needs to solve
The most luxurious feel is not automatically the best operational decision when use and care do not fit.
Terry items are often compared by weight or softness. In hotel operations, drying time, wash resistance, colour, reorder availability and the intensity of daily use also matter.
Planning
Prepare the details in a structured way
Guest towels, hand towels, bath towels and bath mats should be considered as separate items. One consistent range simplifies reordering, while different quality levels may be useful for spa, standard rooms and staff areas.
Decision
What is reviewed before a quote
Samples or a small test stock help assess feel and performance in the business's own process. The quote should show not only unit price, but also minimum quantity, pack size, delivery time and possible replacement items.
