Buy well. Stay supplied.
You depend on a few suppliers, and one late container can empty a shelf. We compare what you buy on landed cost and count your days of stock. Then we write the recovery plan before you need it.
Your supply, counted
A sample restaurant chain, six months of sourcing work.
How long you can trade if supply stops
You see days of stock for each item that matters, and which of them rests on one supplier. The thinnest item sets your real cover.

What happens to your cash if supply stops
One plan names who you call, what you pay on day one and where recovery cash comes from. Your lenders and insurer receive the same record.

Asked before disruption arrives
What you should buy, and from whom
Equipment, packaging and operating inputs, compared on landed cost, supplier standing and contract terms.
What happens to your cash if supply stops
A continuity plan, a second route for fulfilment and transport, and a recovery plan you read before you need it.
From first quote to recovery plan
- Supplier discovery, quotation management and vendor due diligence, with the offers side by side.
- Sourcing of commercial kitchen, warehouse and fulfilment equipment, delivery fleet and rider equipment, and packaging.
- Landed-cost economics and procurement contract analysis.
- Supplier continuity and contingency planning, with second routes for fulfilment and transport.
- Disruption risk assessment, the financial record of a business interruption and your commercial recovery and cash-flow plan.
A process we run and a record we prepare
We run your quotation process from brief to award.
Customs specialists, insurers and your lenders each receive a financial record from us, ready to act on.
You buy from a few suppliers
Retailers, restaurants, logistics operators and commercial buyers. A new kitchen, a replacement delivery fleet or a re-tendered packaging contract all start with one question: how much do you let one supplier carry?
This work sits beside supply chain and partner ecosystem, which holds your providers to the score once you have chosen them.
