Supply chain review, supplier negotiation and cost reduction for small businesses across Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent and South Cheshire.
Most small businesses have supplier relationships that have not been properly reviewed in years. Prices drift upward. Payment terms are accepted without question. Alternative suppliers are not benchmarked. The cost sits hidden in the P&L until someone looks for it specifically.
The procurement experience behind Moor & Co is genuinely in-market. In-person time sourcing across South Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Factory visits, supplier assessment and relationship management across three continents. National accounts with major UK retailers and trade customers. That depth of experience is applied directly to your supplier relationships and cost structure.
A systematic assessment of your current supplier base, costs and commercial terms. Identifying where cost savings exist and where the supply chain carries unnecessary risk.
Renegotiating terms with existing suppliers and approaching new ones. Pricing, payment terms, volume commitments and service levels all negotiated from a position of commercial knowledge.
In-market sourcing experience across South Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Factory assessment, supplier relationship development and landed cost analysis for businesses considering international sourcing.
Building the true cost picture for imported goods: product cost, freight, duties, insurance, financing and handling. Understanding what something actually costs before committing to it.
Improving cashflow through better payment terms on both the supplier and customer side. Payment terms are a commercial lever that most small businesses leave unoptimised.
Stock forecasting, reorder point optimisation and inventory cost reduction. Freeing up working capital tied up in stock without creating supply risk.
We start with a systematic review of your supplier relationships, cost structures and procurement processes. In most established businesses the biggest savings are in relationships that have not been properly reviewed in years.
No. Procurement applies to any business that buys goods or services. Professional services firms, trade businesses and retailers all have supplier relationships and cost structures worth reviewing.
It means we have worked directly in markets including South Africa, the Middle East and Asia, visiting factories and building supplier relationships in person. Not desk-based research. Real in-market experience.
No charge. No commitment. An honest conversation about your costs and what can be done.
