Purchasing: Selection and Procurement for the Hospitality Industry: Student Workbook

This text is very easy to use. It covers just about every aspect of purchasing in the hospitality industry, and makes it simple to find what you're looking for. The information is very straight-forward, and it's written in plain english for anyone to understand.

This book is very informative and well-organized. It's very easy to find what you're looking for...and it's got it all when it comes to information that pertains to purchasing for the industry. Very up-to-date...I especially liked the "Technology Applications for Purchasing" chapter.

This textbook succinctly outlines and dicusses purchasing processes in the hospitality industry. It is therefore essential for any nonpurchasing agent who wants a comprehensive view of the purchasing function and activities to understand the management of a successful operation. The book has a lot of useful hands-on information and would be valuable to any person who will be assuming any purchasing related activities in the hospitality industry. As one who has studied hospitality management and worked in the industry, the detailed explanations are very precise and correct and very instructive. The book is recommended for nonpurchasing agents, but I recommend it for anyone who wants to understand one of managements' biggest headaches: purchasing.
