Regional & Multi-Site Businesses We Support
Real examples (anonymised) of businesses operating across Devon & East Cornwall:
Multi-Site Café Group (Plymouth & Bodmin)
Challenge: Operating 3 locations across Plymouth and East Cornwall. Previously using different suppliers for each site—inconsistent pricing, multiple invoices, stock discrepancies.

Holiday Park (South East Cornwall)

Solution: Flexible delivery scheduling based on event calendar. Delivered to different postcodes weekly (within Devon coverage area). Consistent quality and reliability across all event locations.
Coastal Restaurant (Looe, East Cornwall)
Challenge: Seafood-focused menu requiring premium frozen fish, shellfish, and specialty items. East Cornwall location meant limited supplier options with seafood expertise.
