Front Desk Supply Sees Sharp Demand in Hotel Key Orders as Hospitality Industry Prepares for Busy Q3 and 1.3 billion Total Occupancy Nights in 2023

“The sharp increase in demand for hotel keys is stark but not surprising. In the warmer months, guests are more interested in memories and like to take branded products with them, including hotel key cards. ” Front Desk Supply Director of Commercial Operations Mark Zisek.

Front Desk Supply, a leading hospitality supplier based in San Diego, CA, has analyzed its ordering trends and finds that those orders are consistent with the hotel industry’s continued significant strides toward recovery after the pandemic. Increased orders for hotel key cards and other products offered by the company are a likely precursor to an uptick in summer travel as travelers seek accommodations that meet their ever-evolving needs, including the need to mix business and leisure activities, often leading to a faster turnover of hotel amenities.

“The sharp increase in demand for hotel keys is stark but not surprising,” says Front Desk Supply Director of Commercial Operations Mark Zisek. “In the warmer months, guests are more interested in memories and like to take branded products with them, including hotel key cards. They take their keys with them while spending more time outside or around water. ”

2023 U.S. hotel demand is projected to surpass 2019 levels, while revenue is expected to reach new heights on a nominal basis. Hotels are bracing to accommodate a projected 1.3 Billion occupied nights in 2023, up 57% from 2020.

The exponential increase in occupancy and revenue within the hospitality industry coexists side-by-side with growing supply chain challenges.

“The Lunar New Year hit late this year,” says Zisek. “Many hoteliers don’t realize how impactful the holiday is to shipping schedules, and some of our new customers are coming to us frustrated with delays out of China. We seem to be one of the few vendors able to deliver during this period by increasing our capacity here in the United States.”

In response to the rapidly changing industry, Front Desk Supply utilizes a supply chain completely that avoids ocean freight, working with local suppliers to eliminate any delay. Front Desk Supply develops, designs, prints, and warehouses hotel amenities in the U.S. through a partner network. This results in faster and more direct shipping to partners and services.

To support hoteliers that are preparing for an increase in guests in Q3 2023, Front Desk Supply is offering a discount of $50 off a $500 order in hotel key cards for the month of April.

Front Desk Supply is an industry leader in hospitality supplies, offering a wide variety of items, including key cards, key card holders, valet tags, hotel signs and concierge tags.
