Snapshot

The one-minute version

The full model, competitive analysis and pilot economics are in the deck — a short summary here so you know whether to reach out.

What we do

Pool procurement across the independents on a single street. Same suppliers, same specs — combined purchase orders, one delivery window, chain-level pricing.

Why now

UK hospitality closures hit a record 10,000+ in 2024. Procurement is 28–35% of independent P&L. The tools that exist (Choco, Rekki) sell to suppliers, so demand aggregation has never been anyone's business.

Business model

Free for restaurants. 2.5% take rate on suppliers, applied only to incremental GMV — i.e. the volume they win because of Hubbl. Incentives aligned with restaurants, not against them.

Market

UK independent restaurant procurement TAM ~£14bn (35% of £40bn independent revenue). International expansion follows the same postcode-cluster playbook.

Traction

Edinburgh pilot launching now — a real procurement loop with real restaurants and real suppliers in one postcode. Waitlist open on the homepage.

The vision

Procurement is the wedge. The long game is a data intelligence layer, coordinated logistics, a neighbourhood stock exchange, and embedded finance underwritten by verified purchasing history — Square Capital for independent restaurants.
