GNFR Suppliers
Retail, leisure, and hospitality supply chain experts.
In the current economic climate, retail, leisure and hospitality businesses across the UK are increasingly under pressure to cut costs and boost efficiencies across all operations.
Through reviewing your spend management and consolidating your supply chain with GNFR suppliers, our expert teams can ensure that you can reduce spending and remain competitive.
Accounting for 25% of a high-street branch’s operating costs, Goods Not For Resale (GNFR) plays a key role in developing a purchasing strategy that tightens spending while not cutting back on quality.
The first steps to consolidation are by moving purchasing to a single, trusted partner that can provide all of the products and services that you need, with one invoice and one delivery.
GNFR suppliers that boost sustainability credentials
We take a lifecycle approach to sustainability, focusing on the three core areas of planet, people, and partners. Our strategy is constantly being updated, taking into account what’s best for the environment, society, community, and our customers’ sustainability goals — alongside working to meet the UK government’s long-term goals for carbon net zero.

Access to 1M products via our leading online procurement platform
With over 1 million products to choose from, we connect customers to the lowest prices and widest choice through our digital procurement platform, Office Depot Online.
Plus, with business intelligence and reporting built in, you can make smart decisions for long-term benefit.
Inventory planning for tomorrow’s customer
Making sure you have the right stock in the right place at the right time can be the key to your retail, leisure or hospitality operation or campaign running smoothly in the background. However, this can be challenging to forecast effectively, alongside the planning of the stock you actually need to sell. Therefore, our teams will work with you in the background to forecast, manage and execute a GNFR strategy successfully.

With a depth of experience in warehousing, inventory management, and logistics, our teams can develop bespoke solutions to optimise your stock management and storage requirements.
