Absolutely loved this scone set up at a fab coffee shop in Innerleithen Scotland. For one small street there’s 8 coffee shops. The lowest rating is 4.7 🌟 on google!
The Boat House at Swanwick is such a lovely place to do some work from. The coffee is now first class and I can tell you from coming here for over 20 years it’s not always been like that! Certainly one of the best transformations from The Dog House to the Boat House as it is today.
Labour costs have risen because of government action by 15%+ especially affecting businesses who employ part time workers. Who employs the most PT workers. Hospitality. Stick on top of that 35% increase in biz rates. These aren’t ’every little thing’. They are actions that will put folks out of business.
For food suppliers, the chicken & egg problem is real: can't sell to customers without a route-to-market and can't sell to a wholesaler without already having a list of customers.
Solving it means finding buyers who are already connected to wholesalers. Then leveraging those relationships to negotiate listings.
That's exactly what we're building at Simpli FAB.
No more chasing dead-end leads. Only pre-qualified matches that actually lead somewhere.
Thoughts from suppliers who've faced this challenge?
From a CBinsights email I got this morning - too good not to share...
Hi there,
Elon Musk reportedly sent an email to the Tesla team that leaked. (Hopefully this isn't some urban legend.)
It had 6 rules of productivity.

Ah nooooo. Very sad to read. These guys were small and growing in my short Coffee Republic days. Good to see the brand will live on with SSP. How many of these stories will we be reading over the coming months? Best wishes to all the folks sadly now looki…https://t.co/xUdD7WaZ7p
Thanks #chargedretail for the table. That's some seriously interesting insight. GoPuff leading the av revenue per user in quick commerce. There's more loyalty to those quick grocery apps than I assumed. #commerce#fastgrocery https://t.co/JhXvqyo7qJ
We use Roses Bakers in our restaurant in Sheffield and they are really great bakers and buns. I can highly recommend them.
Today we were stuck on delivery (we weren't there to receive them) and not able to collect (busy busy)
So the MD dropped them off…https://t.co/ppfI5wDdZG

This week linkedin is bringing nothing but smiles into my 'feed' 😁 . Currently anyone can enjoy a free jacket potato with Beanz at Morrisons followed by a free beer at Brewdog. Sounds like my college catering lunchbreaks from the 80's 🤔 https://t.co/MzgaZntqR6
I think I might need a little top head dusting for any more talks. Is a make up artist acceptable for industry talks? 😂 #baldy#shineon

Never have I experienced a tougher period for operating in hospitality than right now and unfortunately it's going to get worse. It's sad to see so many places close but I also know a host of other operators propping up businesses with their own money hop…https://t.co/gnPLpIW9Kj
