We started the year in true Regency style, bringing our team together for our annual three-day company conference — a highlight in our calendar and a vital part of how we set the pace for the year ahead.

This year’s theme, “Uniquely Regency,” was all about celebrating who we are, what sets us apart, and how we use those differences to deliver even greater value for our members. It was a chance to reflect on our identity, our strengths, and the culture that continues to drive our success.

Reflecting on a Record Year, Looking Ahead with Purpose

Following a record-breaking 2025, the conference provided the perfect opportunity to pause, reflect on what we’ve achieved, and then look firmly to the future. Over three focused and energising days, we aligned on our direction for 2026 — setting ambitious growth goals while reinforcing what matters most to us: supporting our members at every level.

Our commitment goes beyond helping businesses buy better. We’re focused on helping them operate better — today and into the future — through insight, innovation and partnership.

Three Days of Insight, Collaboration and Inspiration

Across the conference, our team experienced a packed programme designed to inform, inspire and connect:

• We welcomed new colleagues as our team continues to grow
• Our leadership team shared strategic priorities and goals for 2026
• Key supply partners delivered valuable insights into upcoming opportunities
• We were inspired by an outstanding guest speaker, Jonathan Davies-Levy
• Teams collaborated through workshops, challenges and interactive sessions
• Our development chef showcased innovative new food concepts for our members
• Evenings were spent enjoying exceptional food at our own hospitality venues
• And, of course, there were plenty of laughs along the way

Proud of What Makes Us Uniquely Regency

As we move into 2026, we do so motivated, focused and aligned. We’re proud of what makes us uniquely Regency and excited about what’s ahead — for our members, our partners and our growing team.

A big thank you to our supply partners — Diageo, Nestlé, Kraft Heinz, PizzaSi, Bidfood UK, Brakes UK, Delicious Ideas Food Group, Délifrance, Mars, Samworth Brothers, Simply Lunch, and Nisbets — for your contribution to the event and for your continued support.

Here’s to another year of collaboration, innovation and shared success.
