Last updated: 2 July 2023

  1. Coordination with stores ensures the availability of day-to –day necessities of housekeeping.
  2. Larger hotels have a store attached to the housekeeping department that stocks linen, supplies and so on.
  3. Smaller hotels may stock them in the general store, except for linen, which is sent to the housekeeping department on purchase.
  4. Communication with stores is by way of a requisition form, which housekeeping sends to when it requires certain items. The requisition form is called as store requisition form.
