Regency Purchasing Group has helped us with food tasting days and advised us to create a more focused menu. Working alongside the team at Regency, we've been able to get our GPs right for each of our products.

Regency Purchasing Group has, and continues to, save me a lot of money on my cleaning and disposable purchases. It frees up my time to get on with running my business more efficiently instead of constantly look at prices.

Our Procurement Manager has been a huge help, not only has he analysed all our spending and helped us save money in areas outside of just purchasing, he has also introduced us to new product lines and best of all, got us onto a great loyalty scheme.

Starting any new business is always a huge task, but with the help and continued support of Regency, the pressure of confirming the best suppliers and finalising our menu was completely alleviated. Our assigned Procurement Manager is incredible and has gone above and beyond for us.

The Regency team and our Procurement Manager have been integral in helping us get back to re-opening in a Covid safe and secure environment. They've provided, and even tailored solutions for PPE and hand sanitiser stations and the level of service has been exceptional during this unprecedented time.

Regency get the best prices from our suppliers, which not only saves us a great deal of time, but it gives us peace of mind knowing they're in our corner. We have ambitions for the next level and it really feels like they share our future vision!

When we partnered with Regency, we regained control. Now, I see Regency more as a department of our own company; more than just a supplier. They've supported us with not only our purchasing needs, but also our customer service and they can quickly adapt when we acquire new venues.

Working with Regency is like having a dedicated procurement director on your team, and the double-digit % savings they achieved will have a significant impact on our bottom line, helping to mitigate some of the COVID-19 costs.

Regency has helped reduce costs and increase margins by looking at alternative items, products and suppliers. They've also helped us with other areas of our business, including our waste management and non-food procurement, which has taken a burden away from us and helped us to save time and money.

Regency always give a prompt and helpful response to any queries, particularly with the personalised quotes and help received regarding the nutritional and pricing breakdown. We also like the visual aspects of Regency IQ, including the graphs, and we are using the system more and more.

Regency advised us of a new partner supplier they had taken on for credit card services. We provided our merchant services statements and received a prompt turnaround with a quote for almost 20% savings vs. our current provider.

The team illustrated a 'black and white' saving of 12% on our food, drink and non-food costs. We would highly recommend Regency Purchasing Group - like minded operators with exceptional ability to help us control and manage what we do.

Regency have helped by leveraging their collective industry presence and buying power to secure both better deals and treatment from our suppliers. The Regency team has been instrumental, not only in helping us find partners and suppliers for our business, but also in helping us develop our business concepts and unique selling propositions.

We know we're not one of the 'big accounts' for Regency, however we have never been made to feel that we are any less important. In all honesty, Regency has been a god send(!), especially when I've had difficult suppliers who just don't get their acts together.

I was a little sceptical at first, but I’m glad I took time out and listened to what Regency had to offer us. They have been extremely informative and knowledgeable throughout.

Our purchasing is more streamlined since becoming a Regency member and the Regency IQ system helps us control our purchasing, along with the visibility of our invoices. Regency has also helped us with our menu planning, which has not only saved us money, but saved so much time, which for us as operators is precious.

We started working with Regency Purchasing group in 2016 and what a brilliant decision it was! My husband and I have formed such a good working relationship with our Procurement Manager that we can’t imagine him not being a part of our business.

I have been put in contact with great local and national suppliers, getting better rates than I could ever find myself. On the rare occasion I have had an issue with a supplier, the Regency team have dealt with it in an instant.

Regency have great values as a business, and that flows from the top all the way down through the entire team and it makes them a joy to work with.

Regency Purchasing Group is a company who really assists you with getting the best for your business. Our Procurement Manager took our comments onboard and it was like having a full-time food and beverages regional manager.

Since working with Regency, we have been hitting targets, improving quality and serving hundreds of thousands of pounds of fantastic food - one very happy Director, and one very happy Kitchen Manager - who is achieving bonus every month.

Regency has taken a load off me - they've streamlined our ordering offering true help to the F&B staff and the Regency team has been able to slash my costs! They have done what my suppliers said they would do, but didn’t.

We're very pleased with the price stability, product advice and support we have received. Their access to competitive pricing, together with their bench marking ability, has made a big difference to our competitiveness.
