What we actually do for you
Instead of your chef, manager or owner wasting hours chasing quotes, comparing prices, and arguing over small line items, One Source steps in as your outsourced purchasing and negotiation partner.
We:
Analyse all your current invoices, contracts and delivery notes
Benchmark what you’re paying against the wider market
Identify where you’re bleeding margin—product by product
Go to your existing suppliers and alternative ones to negotiate
Secure better prices, discounts, rebates and terms on your behalf
Standardise how your team orders so there’s less chaos and fewer mistakes
You keep your preferred suppliers and your standards. We make the numbers make sense.
Why this creates real leverage
Most independent restaurants, hotels and groups pay “public” or “polite” prices. You don’t have the time or volume to squeeze the market properly—alone.
By partnering with One Source, you tap into:
Group buying power – you benefit from the volume and experience we represent
Professional negotiation – we live in the numbers and push harder, for longer
Market intelligence – we see prices and terms across many clients and categories
Clear rules and contracts – we lock in what’s agreed so it doesn’t drift back up
The result: you start buying like a bigger player—without needing the size, staff or time of a big group.
From chaos and guesswork to system and control
Right now, most hospitality operations have purchasing spread across:
WhatsApp messages
Random email chains
Phone calls at 23:00
“We’ve always done it this way” habits
That’s how money leaks out of the business.
We bring everything into one structured, traceable system:
One point of contact for supplier issues
One standardised way to place and confirm orders
One source of truth for prices, terms and spend
One expert team watching that your suppliers respect the deal
You get fewer surprises, fewer errors, and more predictable margins.
Immediate impact on your bottom line
When purchasing is optimised, three things happen quickly:
Your cost of goods drops – better prices, better discounts, fewer “creeping” increases.
Your cash flow improves – stronger payment terms and clearer planning.
Your profit grows – every percentage point you save on purchasing falls straight to the bottom line.
In a high-cost environment where labour, rent and utilities keep rising, purchasing is one of the last levers you truly control. One Source is built to pull that lever as hard as possible for you.
No extra workload for your team
We designed the service so that your team doesn’t drown in more admin. In fact, they usually end up with less:
We handle the negotiation and heavy lifting with suppliers.
We prepare the analysis and present clear options.
We implement the new structure with your team and ensure it’s easy to follow.
Your chefs stay focused on food. Your managers stay focused on service and sales.
We stay focused on costs, contracts and control.
Protect your contracts, protect your margins
Prices rarely go up with a phone call; they creep up line by line over months.
We:
Lock in agreed pricing and terms
Monitor invoices for “silent” increases and errors
Flag and challenge any drift away from what was agreed
Document everything, so you’re not relying on memories or favours
This is how you stop death by a thousand small increases and start defending your profit with data.
Who One Source is for
Our model is built for:
Restaurants and groups who know they’re overpaying but lack the time or structure to fix it
Hotels that want purchasing discipline without building a big in-house team
Owners who want to scale and open more sites without letting costs spiral
Operators who take margin seriously and think like business people, not just hospitality people
If you’re serious about profit and growth, purchasing is no longer a back-office chore. It’s a competitive weapon.
The next step
If you want to see what One Source could save you, the first step is simple:
We review a sample of your current invoices and terms, identify where you’re losing margin, and show you what a realistic saving could look like—before you commit to anything.
You keep full control.
We bring the leverage, structure and negotiation.
Your costs go down. Your margins go up.
