More about us

It's our mission to continue to maintain fairness in the supply chain, ensuring our Members don't pay more than they need to.

We have a team of over 90 staff at HQ from procurement experts, billing teams to dedicated account managers, always at the end of the phone to help advise on your next purchase.

Harnessing the power of our data, from processing over 40,000 invoices a month, we’re collaborating with leading academics to create tools to assess global markets, forecast trends, and help Members buy at the right time for the best possible price.

Immersed in the dynamics of supply chains, AF specialists draw on that deep knowledge to share insights, offer alternatives and give practical tips to guide your decision-making on what and when to purchase.

We tell you whether now or later is best to order for optimum value. We combine Member orders for buying better, together. Through our early ordering process, AF stays in best position to get best prices.

In your monthly AF statement pack all your purchases through AF are detailed ready for payment with one direct debit. Smoothly, you transfer it into your business accounting software for timesaving, easy admin.
