OrderingHow Many Sheets of Custom Greaseproof Paper Should You Order?
Ordering too few sheets means a mid-week scramble for plain stock; ordering too many ties up cash and storage space in a back room. The good news is that greaseproof paper quantity math is simple once you know your weekly sheet usage.
Start with your average daily sheet usage across all sizes, multiply by the weeks of buffer you want on hand, and round up to your style’s minimum order quantity.
| Restaurant size | Typical monthly sheets | Suggested first order |
|---|---|---|
| New single location | 3,000–8,000 | 5,000 |
| Established single location | 10,000–25,000 | 15,000–20,000 |
| 2–5 location group | 40,000–120,000 | 60,000–100,000 |
| Franchise / wholesale | 250,000+ | 250,000–500,000 |
Account for seasonality
Holiday weeks and event spikes can double normal sheet volume for a week or two. Rather than over-ordering for the whole quarter, place a standing order sized for your normal weeks and a smaller top-up order two weeks ahead of a known spike — in line with our standard lead time.
