What does it cost to stock a bar?
What does it cost to stock a bar from scratch. I'm opening a bar and need to know what I'm looking at. The bar size i suppose is avarage.
It all depends.
Depending upon how many different vodkas, gins, whiskeys, rums, etc that you want to have gathering dust on your shelves, how busy you expect to be... You could likely expect to spend $5,000 to $20,000 (give or take) to stock the shelves initially.
Make a list of the products that you want to sell. Figure out how many of each item that you need to open the doors and meet your customer's needs. Then add to it how many of each you must have in reserve in the storeroom (par level) so you don't run out before the next liquor / beer delivery.
Once you know how many of each item that you need, multiply each item by the wholesale cost of each item. Add it all up - that is the cost for your opening inventory.
Undoubtedly the wholesalers, the beer, liquor and wine salesmen in your area will give you a much better idea. I am sure they will love to see a new venue out there selling their products and being successful.
Best of luck... you do realize that there are many many other costs and considerations to opening a bar. Many regulations, taxes, fees, licenses on top of what it costs to supply your business.
