Party Supply Storage
Running a party supply store may be a dream that you’ve had for many years, and now that you’re working towards opening your first location, your focus is on making sure you have enough supplies for your customers. You’ve been working with distributors on getting the best deals and, as your inventory increases, it’s important to keep in mind how you’ll store everything. Whether you’re selling items directly from your store, or you’re going to people’s homes and businesses to set up decorations, it’s imperative to have proper storage. At EZ Storage®, we can help you find the ideal solutions.
Keeping Track of Stock
Many people who open their first business on their own have to begin in a small storefront that doesn’t have much storage space. This can make it difficult to keep track of what you have in stock, since some of your supplies are in the store and some are in your garage. A small storage space can give you the flexibility you need to keep certain items in your storeroom and those excess boxes in your rented unit. You can keep your most popular items on hand and perhaps larger items, such as banners or pinatas, in storage.
Seasonality
Renting self-storage can also make it easier to store items on a seasonal basis. You always have birthday and anniversary supplies in your store, but you don’t always need to display winter holiday items, at least not until September or October. Having a storage space gives you the flexibility to put those seasonal items away until it’s time to market and sell them again. Instead of having them take up prime real estate in your storeroom, you can make space for those year-round supplies that provide you with the most sales opportunities.
Special Event Supplies
If your store sells party supplies but also rents things for special events, such as catering equipment, you might not have the room for these larger items. A champagne fountain or fondue station can take up quite a bit of space, and moving those things into a storage unit will help your store feel less cramped. You like being able to offer these options to your customers, but they’re probably not requested all that often, so why not put them into storage until you need them?
