New Commercial Director
A New Season
Craig comes with a strong Commercial and Sales/Marketing background,
including three decades in business and seven years’ hands-on experience,
heading up a Christian Conference Centre in the Midlands.
We are thankful to God for bringing to CSCSBG the right person to replace
Steve Hallett – who is off to be a Curate in the Church of England! Craig’s aim
is to release our full potential in this time of growth and is very much looking
                                                                                                              Craig Walford
forward to taking over the reins as we enter this new season. The first action
was to change our strapline:
Saving money - because ministry matters to
Saving money - because your mission matters
Craig says, “As a CSCBG family, we have a duty to be ambassadors for Christ and how our members treat our
suppliers, both through the good and bad experiences, is a witness to the fact. It’s not what we do that counts, but it is
the manner in which we operate and the way we treat people, that will be the ultimate call. Our day to day work really
does have a mission that is bigger than itself.”
Craig has been working on setting new standards and expectations to get our suppliers better aligned to the Values of
the Christian Supply Chain, and hopes that all our members will notice a tangible difference.

    will be truly found.

Don't let slow and unreliable broadband hold your
     organisation back
     A slow broadband connection can have a huge impact on
     your organisation, reducing productivity, making
     communications difficult, stopping internet applications
     working properly and ultimately costing you money and
     (for CCI members who provide accommodation) giving
     people who come to stay with you a poor experience.

     service received by all the different people at 2 Circles we have dealt with from Sales to Technicians to

          and spirits, cutlery, crockery and cooking utensils, cleaning
          products and catering equipment.

          We’re invested in the success of our customers and we believe
          great service is about more than delivering boxes, it’s also
          about adding value. Corporate responsibility and sustainability
          is a key focus for us, and we work closely with customers to
          address the challenges facing foodservice.

                        *Procurement Audit
Here at Christian Supply Chain we work with you to undertake a free procurement audit of your current purchasing
through analysing your current supplier’s invoices and agreements. We compile a report detailing your current spend
against our suppliers pricing and discounts to produce a summary of the savings and actions required. See below example:

              This member saved £17,000pa       ex VAT equating to an overall saving of 9%.
We worked with them to implement the changes and ensure a smooth change over to the buying group suppliers. We
don’t charge for this service as our suppliers will pay us a small ‘finders fee’ meaning you keep all the savings!

            An audit for a Theological College highlighted savings of £24k
                  and for a large Christian conference centre £42k
