YOUR PARTNER ON A DAILY BASIS
FOODSOURCE CONSULTING
Foodservice consulting for procurement and logistics.
PARTNER & REFERENCES
Our customers are diverse: from start-ups looking to launch a new concept to hotels in the Maldives and established system gastronomy concepts such as dean&david and Vapiano. They appreciate our flexible compensation models. We are happy to be measured against actual success and take on the risk in this way.
A SAMPLE OF OUR PARTNERS:
"FOODSOURCE analyzed our existing logistics structure and, on this basis, showed us how we could reorganize it to make it fit for the future and generate enormous savings in the process. In the next step, they will support us in the implementation of this project. We have the utmost confidence in the team and would recommend them at any time."
"I have worked with Sebastian and his team several times and have also recommended him again and again with great success and great feedback. At Vapiano he always supported us not only in purchasing but especially in supply chain optimization. That's why it was the first call for me after we bought Vapiano in the new constellation to have him on board again. Sebastian is 100% professional, motivated, thinks & acts like an entrepreneur. Always available 24/7 and solution oriented. Can only recommend him to everyone."
"Sebastian and Miriam play a key role at Vapiano, ensuring the smooth running of our international supply chain. Their combined experience, having worked directly for Vapiano for years before founding Foodsource in 2019, means they are a strong pillar in establishing our future strategy, bringing their incredible knowledge combined with a truly innovative approach."
SERVICE
WE PROVIDE SUPPORT WHEREVER FOOD IS PURCHASED - FROM THE PRODUCT ITSELF TO FINE DISTRIBUTION TO THE STORE.
Depending on the development status of your company, we customize our service.
In the case of a new concept, we support you in product development with innovative product ideas and ensure that these can then be put into practice - without presenting you with unsolvable operational or financial challenges.
Even established companies with existing purchasing departments are happy to make use of our expertise because we can create real added value:
- We negotiate prices for different customers on a daily basis and therefore know the current market conditions
- We have access to a very extensive network of suppliers
- We have the advantage that we have no day-to-day business and can focus exclusively on the project
- As an external consultant, we carry out structured and professional tenders to qualify new suppliers for you and to achieve the best results for you in negotiations with existing suppliers.
ABOUT US
We offer specialized consulting and services in the field of purchasing and logistics for the foodservice industry.
WE SOURCE THE BEST PRODUCT – BASED ON YOUR NEEDS
The core of our business is not the analysis, but the concrete implementation of projects together with our customers. We become colleagues on time and stay until the success of the project is actually achieved.
No matter what challenge you have in the area of purchasing and logistics, we will find a solution that we can implement together.
MIRIAM FIQUET & SEBASTIAN LESAAR
Miriam and Sebastian founded Foodsource in August 2020 and have focused on two things from the beginning: 100% food and 100% implementation focus - this has allowed Foodsource to grow to a team of 12 that now serves a broad portfolio of clients - from Germany's second largest burger system to Michelin starred restaurants. Miriam's diverse experience provides the impetus for all projects, enhancing the value Foodsource delivers to each client, while Sebastian plays to his strengths in strategy and structure.
