Innovista’s Solution to Linen Supply Challenges
Hotels have traditionally outsourced their linen supply.
The Small Linen concept proposes bringing that outsourced work back in-house.
Benefits of bringing linen in-house
・ A large cut in linen costs → lower expenses and higher profitability
・ Improved earnings can be reinvested in better service (value-up) for guests, raising guest satisfaction
・ Less exposure to rising linen supply prices
Bringing linen in-house can substantially reduce costs, including labor, utilities and transportation.
It solves the problem of rising linen supply prices at the root!
