When answering this question, focus on your experience and strategies in managing inventory and supply chain specifically for brewing ingredients. Highlight any systems or software you use to track inventory levels, forecast demand, and reorder supplies. Discuss your relationships with suppliers and how you ensure the quality and timely delivery of ingredients. Provide examples of how you've handled challenges such as supply shortages or quality issues. For instance:
"In my previous role, I implemented an inventory management system that allowed us to track ingredient levels in real-time and set up automatic reorder points. I also established strong relationships with multiple suppliers to ensure we had backup options in case of shortages. When we faced a quality issue with one of our malt suppliers, I quickly coordinated with our secondary supplier to maintain production without any delays."
