Café is a business industry that runs in food and beverages sector, which is now
starting to be loved by today's young people. Adhum Cafe is one of the business
industries in the food and beverages sector located in Batam City. Adhum Café
has a problem with the inventory control in Curhat sweetened condensed milk. The
Cafe experienced an out-of-stock of this raw material which resulted in lost sales
and complaints from customers. This is caused by the absence of inventory control
in ordering sweetened condensed milk. Therefore, the need for the best solution
to solve this problem is by using several methods such as the Economic Order
Quantity (EOQ) and Reorder Point (ROP) methods to provide alternative solutions
to reduce the potential losses caused by this problem.
Based on the calculation results, it is found that Adhum Cafe needs to order
seventy four cans of Curhat sweetened condensed milk once the inventory has
reached the number of two unit of cans. The reorder day will be made on any day
once the stock has reached the Reorder Point amount, considering to prevent the
possibilities if shortage that might happen in any days. The decision to reorder on
every once the stock has reached the Reorder Point amount is because it will
reduce the possibility of out of stock sweetened condensed milk when the cafe is
experiencing the best upselling day.
