Input cost is where partner margin is won or lost.
Supply Chain & Procurement
The group procurement function exists to lower partner input costs. Network pricing is extended to onboarded partners on the categories that drive their unit economics.
A partner buying chemicals, textiles and consumables at group pricing improves contribution margin on the same contracted revenue — before a single additional order is placed.
Categories under group pricing
- Textile and linen sourcing at group volume pricing
- Laundry chemicals and dosing systems
- Cleaning consumables, machinery and spares
- Uniform manufacture and sizing programmes
- Equipment financing and structured payment plans
Where group pricing moves the numbers
| Category | Why it matters to a partner | Cost profile |
|---|---|---|
| Textiles and linen | Largest single input on a rental or swap contract; durability drives the replacement cycle | Capital, amortised |
| Laundry chemicals | Dosing accuracy affects both unit cost and rewash rate | Recurring, volume-linked |
| Cleaning consumables | Paper, chemicals and microfibre consumed continuously across every contracted site | Recurring, headcount-linked |
| Machinery and spares | Downtime costs more than the part; stocked spares shorten it | Capital plus maintenance |
| Uniform manufacture | Sizing programmes and repair reduce replacement volume | Capital, amortised |
| Equipment finance | Structured payment spreads an upgrade the audit identified | Financing cost |
How a partner accesses it
- Network pricing is extended on onboarding, per category
- There is no obligation to buy through the group — a partner can keep existing suppliers
- Pricing is compared openly against the partner’s current terms, category by category
- Equipment financing is offered against upgrades identified at audit, not as general credit
- Uniform sizing and manufacture run centrally, so the partner handles rotation and repair only
