Founder/Director of Zero Procure - making procurement simple at ZERO cost!

I co-founded Zero Procure back in 2020 because I knew procurement could be done differently.

I’d already been working in the hospitality industry for…well my whole life. But I’d previously run a cleaning business for 11 years before I sold it in 2017.

And there’s something I noticed about procurement:

- You either did it yourself…taking time away from your core job
- You could hire someone to do it…but they only have so much buying power
- You could hire a procurement company…that will charge you a percentage of your savings
- Or you could go with option 4…paying just the supplier for your goods, but also getting the best prices

Here’s our cue to come in.

Zero Procure works the exact same as any other procurement company…but you, the customer, don’t pay a thing!

Honestly, it’s as simple as that (we get our cuts from the supplier, not you).

Sound intriguing?

Feel free to send me a message and let’s have a chat about how we can help your business!

Founder / Director

We are Zero. We're changing the way you'll procure. Forever. Born during the Pandemic, inspired to support, most definitely - here to stay.

Zero Procure makes procurement effortless, efficient and above all saves you money. We differ from more traditional procurement companies, as you, our customers pay Zero. Zero Cost, Zero Risk, Zero Contract.

Adding great value through our expertise and our vast network of suppliers, Zero Procure also provides a high yielding and low-cost sales tool for suppliers.

On a mission to make procurement Free & Simple for Hospitality Brands

Happy New Year to all my connections! 🎉

Wishing everyone a successful and prosperous 2026.

That said, this article, published on just the second official working day of the year was not an encouraging read for the pub industry and hospitality as a whole. It’s concerning when the government openly admits that “pubs will struggle with business rates.”

If you’re looking to take control in a challenging landscape, there are ways to protect margins and improve buying power:

✔️ Streamline visibility across your category spend
✔️ Secure better rates with existing and new suppliers
✔️ Access rebates and brand partnerships through our network
✔️ Pay zero for all of the above

If this sounds relevant, feel free to book some time with me:

I Help Time-Poor Entrepreneurs and C-Suite Execs Transform their Health

I help male CEOs (business owners) over 50 become calm, strong, energised & in control—without living in the gym, following fads, or relying on willpower that disappears the moment travel and pressure hit.

If business is thriving but your energy, waistline, sleep, or bloodwork are sliding, this is built for you.

Each month, my team and I take on a small number of CEOs (business owners) over 50 (and, where relevant, their senior leadership teams) inside our signature 16‑Week CEO Health Reset (formerly Rapid Result System™). It’s a boardroom-friendly approach designed to survive real schedules—and stick.

Why CEOs (business owners) join us (and why they stay)

→ Favourite business shirts/jackets no longer fit
→ Energy is too low for business, training, and family
→ Persistent worry about long-term health, bloodwork, and heart risk
→ Feeling burnt out—success coming at too high a personal cost
→ A body that feels inflamed, stiff, or out of shape
→ You’ve tried apps, trainers, diets… and it never survived your schedule

How we work

We start with a CEO Health Diagnostic & Review, then build a simple, personalised plan around:
• Simple science nutrition (no extremes)
• High-impact training blocks (time-efficient + travel-proof)
• Accountability under pressure (so it happens during busy weeks)

We use smart tools where helpful, but the coaching is human-led and hands-on—because results at this level come from judgement, context, and execution (not generic templates).

Proof from our clients

• Mark Balaam, CEO: 3 stone lost in 10 weeks; confidence and energy back
• James Taylor, MD: off blood pressure meds; performing at a new level
• Billy Power, MD: golf pain-free; leading at full throttle again
• Tamara Gillan, CEO: 16 lbs lost in 6 weeks — sharper, leaner, and back in control

Ready for the next step?

If you’re a CEO (business owner) over 50, complete the Executive Health Diagnostic — click “Visit my website.”

From there, you can request an Executive Diagnostic Call.

All places are offered based on readiness and fit (we keep capacity intentionally limited so the coaching stays personal).

Prefer DM? Message me “RESET”, and I’ll send the Diagnostic link.

Body Transformation Vs Health Transformation

Had a great chat with the editor of a well-known London City newspaper about his health and fitness journey. 

• He's a 43-year-old busy professional.
• He has to commute to the office every day
• He has events and lunch meetings
• He has a lot on his plate

He described to me his previous efforts to get in shape.

Over the years, he had been through 2 body transformation programmes with well-known (very good) London-based personal trainers.

He shared his before and after shots; he looked incredible.

But here he was talking to me about his desire to run through a third body transformation programme.

We chatted for a while about his goals, his commute, and his business responsibilities. 

It became clear that the idea of stripping fat, bodybuilding, and dialling in his calories, all for the goal of creating before-and-after shots, wasn't as appealing as it once was.

As we get older, our health goals shift.

We want to be around for our kids, we want to keep doing the things we love, we want to avoid BIG health issues, and we want to be at the top of our business game for the long haul. 

Here's how mine have changed

👉 I used to care about big biceps, now I care about my VO2 Max
👉 I used to care about flat abs, now I care about optimal sleep
👉 I used to care about protein supplements, now I care about energy
👉 I used to care about sprint speed, now I care about general strength

It's January 2026, and the pressure to lose weight and 'get healthy' is at its peak.

You're being bombarded by body transformation offers, Jane Plan, Professor Tim Spector, Herbalife, food delivery and Dry Jane apps.

All of these solutions have their place, but ask yourself, "Are they going to help me achieve my short-term goals and allow me to maintain them forever despite my crazy business schedule?"

Join me this Friday, 9th January 2026, 1:30 pm for my live online workshop, where I'll walk you through our 5-step process.

My goal is to show you the foundations of health so that you can build your own health programme, or at least explore options with more understanding of what will work for you

This is an interactive workshop, and I want to answer any questions that come up, so I'm keeping the group small. There are 2 spaces available.
