Hospitality Raw Material Distribution Logistics and Supply Contract Certainty Reconstruction in Frontier 3T Regions: Empirical Case of Krui, Pesisir Barat

Background: Tourism accommodation operators in Krui suffer from fragile overland fresh supply chains, erratic delivery schedules, and verbal agreements lacking enforceability. Objectives: To reconstruct contractual certainty under Articles 1320 and 1338 of the Indonesian Civil Code while optimizing multi-stop fresh produce distribution. Methods: Comprehensive field study across 40 hospitality operators in Tanjung Setia, Mandiri Beach, and Krui City with route optimization modeling. Results: Formalizing Service Level Agreements with stipulated liquidated damages (Article 1243) reduces supply disruption frequency by 54% and cuts aggregate logistical overhead by 22.8%. Conclusion: Demonstrates that legal enforceability is an indispensable prerequisite for supply chain resilience in emerging remote tourism clusters.
