Hospitality procurement — RSA · Africa · Indian Ocean

Hospitality, considered — from the drawing board to opening day.

HES is the single procurement partner hotel brands, owners, owners' representatives and design teams bring in to turn a brief, a BOQ or a set of drawings into a fully equipped, fully specified property.

Sheet 01 — Who we work with

Built around the role you play in a hospitality project.

Every property has four kinds of stakeholder at the table. HES is set up to talk to each one in the terms that matter to them.

01 — BRAND

Hotel Brands & Operators

Brand standards held to the letter, property after property — consistent FF&E and OS&E specification, supplier governance and operational replenishment once doors open.

Discuss a brand rollout →

02 — OWNER

Owners & Developers

One accountable partner from CAPEX budget to final delivery — total-cost-of-ownership sourcing and consolidated procurement that keeps a project on budget and on programme.

Talk through your project →

03 — OWNER'S REP

Owners' Representatives

Structured BOQs, supplier governance and documentation that slot straight into your project controls, cost reporting and client sign-off process.

Request a procurement plan →

04 — DESIGN

Architects & Designers

Kitchen and laundry flow design, product specification and sourcing that stays true to design intent, hygiene compliance and back-of-house workflow.

Sheet 02 — Capability

Six disciplines. One point of accountability.

We hold the relationships, the specifications and the paperwork so your team only has to hold one conversation.

Pre-opening & FF&E / OS&E

Full pre-opening procurement coordination, from opening lists to final installation.

Design & flow

Commercial kitchen and laundry layout planning built around workflow, hygiene and throughput.

Specification & BOQ

Bills of quantity and product specification developed against your drawings and brand standard.

Uniforms & collateral

Role-based uniform programmes and printed collateral, specified and produced on brand.

Import & export

Cross-border sourcing and documentation across South Africa, Africa and the Indian Ocean.

Procurement governance

Structured sourcing and decision-support, extended through the PROCURAF platform.

Sheet 03 — Design & flow

We think in the same drawings you do.

Before we specify a single item, we work through the layout: receiving, storage, preparation, service and return — mapped for one-way flow, hygiene compliance and the pace your operation actually runs at.

Refillable guest amenity dispensers specified for a hotel bathroom

A smarter amenity programme

Specified for the brand. Practical for housekeeping.

Refillable, tamper-resistant dispenser systems replace single-use minis without compromising the guest experience — a detail brand standards teams increasingly require and sustainability policies increasingly reward.

Sheet 04 — Process

One team, from first brief to final delivery.

Discover

We review drawings, brand standard and commercial priorities before a single item is specified.

Specify

We build the BOQ against your layout, timeline and budget — for sign-off, not surprises.

Source

We shape a practical, brand-right mix across local and imported supply.

Deliver

We coordinate logistics, import/export and installation to your programme.

Support

We remain the single point of contact for operational replenishment after opening.
