The Capability & Experience to Make It Happen

Our team at Emfood Consulting are the pioneers and recognised industry leaders in Dynamic Food Procurement via regulation-compliant Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) frameworks and our AgileChain technology enables efficient short supply chain fulfilment, consolidation and delivery capability. 

Our 2016 ground-breaking pilot with Bath & North East Somerset Council demonstrated the power of Dynamic Food Procurement to bring a greater choice of fresh, sustainable produce, improved SME inclusivity, end to end supply chain transparency and, importantly, better value.

Since then, we have worked partnering with regional and national procurers in the public and private sectors to bring the benefits of Dynamic Food Procurement to market. We consult on client needs to procure the category depth and breadth required and we provide granular management information throughout the contract to enable analysis to identify specific, actionable, measurable interventions. We advise on strategies to meet customer convenience expectations, reduce costs, improve value, derive greater regional economic benefit, and deliver more sustainable outcomes.

Our team of cutting edge tech engineers, category managers, operations managers and finance administrators are ready to work alongside you.

COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP WORKING

Bespoke Client Needs

We take the time needed to fully understand each client's individual requirements and build tailored recommendations to meet and exceed expectations on safety, selection and convenience.  Our curated by-sector, by-region online stores enable a truly bespoke range and service for chefs.

Value and Cost Control

Our dynamic procurement approach creates a competitive marketplace environment that provides a clear picture on costs and enables informed choices to be made. Supplier price competition is maintained throughout the contract duration. We prove that dynamic food procurement approaches can reduce costs in real terms. 

Sustainable Sourcing

Our Category Managers integrate fresher, delicious ingredients that address the climate and biodiversity crises without breaking the budget. We work closely with Food For Life to achieve Bronze, Silver or Gold status for our clients. Sourcing food this way is a win-win-win-win-win for diners, chefs, regional economy, the client and wider society. 

The Unprecented Data Opportunity

For decades, governments have spent Billions on food in the public sector with little or no transparency with regard to where that investment is going. The absence of measurement capability makes adherence to food standards difficult and enforcement virtually impossible.

AgileChain technology provides procurers granular information about who is buying what, when and where and from whom. Each and every product sourced from the farm gate is tracked with a unique identifier code that follows it's journey along the entire supply chain to the end customer.
