HORECA purchasing covers hotels, restaurants and catering operations. A useful supplier brief separates recurring consumables from equipment and opening-project procurement. Wigmore Trading can assess product sourcing, consolidation and logistics enquiries for Nigerian hospitality businesses.
Prepare a category schedule
List food and beverages, tableware, glassware, cutlery, linen, guest amenities, cleaning products and equipment separately. Give quantities, specifications, budget basis and required dates. A request to “supply a hotel” is too broad for a dependable offer.
State whether the property is opening, renovating or restocking. A one-time opening order and a weekly replenishment route need different planning.
Food and operating supplies
Specify brands or approved equivalents, pack sizes, case quantities and remaining shelf-life requirements. Set a change-approval process so the kitchen does not receive an unsuitable substitute. For temperature-sensitive goods, define receiving and storage requirements.
For housekeeping, distinguish general cleaning, kitchen sanitation and hand hygiene products. Product selection should follow the labelled use and the facility’s approved procedures.
Tableware, linen and guest amenities
Use samples and agreed references for material, dimensions, colour, weight and finish. Confirm dishwasher or laundering requirements through the supplier’s technical information. A photograph cannot establish durability or consistent bulk quality.
Ask whether designs can be replenished after the opening order. A discounted one-off lot can create difficulty when a property needs matching replacements.
Commercial kitchen equipment
Define menu, production volume, service model, layout and utilities. Ask qualified specialists to assess capacity, ventilation, drainage, electrical or gas requirements and safe installation. Domestic equipment is not automatically suitable for commercial duty.
Request manuals, relevant conformity information, warranty, spares, commissioning and training. The offer should identify who installs and supports the equipment, not merely who ships it.
Compare complete procurement scopes
Separate product cost, samples, inspection, packing, freight, clearance, installation and delivery. Consolidation can simplify transport but must account for fragile, temperature-sensitive and incompatible goods.
Agree phased delivery and receiving access. Buying equipment too early can create storage and warranty issues; buying too late can delay opening.
Request a hospitality supply assessment
Send Wigmore Trading the property location, category schedule, quantities, approved specifications and opening or restocking date. We can assess sourcing and logistics and explain what further technical information is needed.
Availability, product brands, installation services and delivery commitments are confirmed in the written offer. A procurement enquiry does not establish a guaranteed stock list or opening date.

Buyer guidance prepared 28 October 2026. Product availability and current applicable requirements must be confirmed for the actual transaction.
Build a hospitality order around your operating model
HORECA means hotels, restaurants and catering, but the buying requirement varies with the business. A resort needs guest-room and back-of-house supplies; a quick-service restaurant may prioritise production speed, takeaway packaging and replenishment; an event caterer needs portable serving equipment and transport-ready packing. Start with the operation rather than copying another venue’s equipment list.
Wigmore Trading welcomes requirements from hotels, guest houses, serviced apartments, restaurants, cafés, bars, resorts, event centres and caterers. Schools, hospitals, corporate cafeterias, supermarkets and industrial canteens can also send a defined foodservice procurement brief. Availability and the scope of specialist work are confirmed for the particular enquiry.
Opening supplies, operating supplies and project equipment
Separate long-life equipment and furniture from recurring items such as linen replacements, packaging, toiletries and cleaning products. Give every line a specification, quantity, priority, required date and receiving location. An opening order should include installation and commissioning where relevant, not just the equipment purchase.
For a new restaurant, use the commercial kitchen startup guide. Hotel buyers can compare linen and bedding, guest amenities and hospitality furniture. Keep samples and acceptance criteria attached to the approved order.
Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt procurement enquiries
State the actual delivery address, site access, unloading arrangements and project programme. A Lagos sourcing enquiry can involve delivery to another city, but transport, installation support and lead time must be assessed for the route. This guide does not establish a showroom, stock depot or service team in every city.
For multi-site groups, agree central specifications and site-specific quantities. Consolidate orders where practical while keeping deliveries traceable by branch. Do not substitute a different model or pack size without operational approval.
How to compare affordable and premium supplies
Compare the same duty, material, size, warranty basis and delivered scope. Premium styling alone does not prove durability, and the cheapest equipment can be expensive to operate or repair. Request sample approval for repeat consumables and technical review for equipment.
Check cleaning compatibility, spare parts, consumable availability and realistic replacement cost. Obtain a dated quotation instead of relying on an undated online national price list.
Order online or request a project quotation
Use our restaurant and hotel supply service for a procurement discussion and commercial kitchen category as a relevant starting point. Online category pages do not by themselves establish that a particular model is in stock.
Send your item schedule, quantities, destination, budget basis and required dates. Tell us whether you need sourcing, consolidation, storage, distribution or a project-support discussion. We can assess the brief and prepare the next step toward a written offer.
