UK Coffee Chain Standardizes Table Legs for 20 New Locations with AEONTI's Quick-Ship Program
The Challenge
Brew & Bean, a rapidly expanding UK coffee chain, was opening 20 new locations across England and Scotland within a six-month window. Each store needed 25-35 tables—approximately 600 tables total. The challenge: consistent quality across all locations, rapid delivery, and minimal procurement complexity.
"We had been using five different suppliers for table legs across our existing stores," the procurement manager explained. "The result was inconsistent quality and different lead times for every order. For this expansion, we needed one partner, one standard."
The Solution
AEONTI's quick-ship program was designed exactly for this scenario:
Off-the-shelf availability: Three standard table leg models in stock, ready for immediate order
15-day guaranteed delivery: From order confirmation to delivery
Standardized finishes: Black powder coat, brushed stainless steel, and titanium gold
Single-supplier solution: One purchase order, one delivery schedule, one quality standard
The chain selected a black powder-coated table leg as their standard for all new locations.
The Results
All 20 stores opened on schedule:
100% on-time delivery: Every order arrived within the 15-day window
30% faster store setup: Standardized tables reduced assembly time
Supplier consolidation: From 5 suppliers to 1
Quality consistency: Identical table experience across all 20 locations
"The quick-ship program took the complexity out of our expansion," the procurement manager said. "We knew exactly what we were getting, when we were getting it, and that every location would be identical."
