More profit back in a pint
UK pubs are averaging around 3p profit for every £1 spent on a pint, down from 7p two years ago. They're being hit by rises in energy, wages and duty all at once. The Drawing Board's move to tem saves them £1,500 a year. That's money that pays for staff, kegs and kitchen equipment, keeping a community cornerstone alive.
Numbers that already make sense
RED™ quotes break out exactly what to expect: a fixed unit rate for day and night usage. Monthly standing charges. High impact non-commodity costs, shown clearlty as pass-through rather than bundled away or marked up. The goal is that what The Drawing Board sees on its first bill matches what they've seen on the quote.
One thing off the list
Running an independent pub means constantly deciding where attention goes. With energy costs fixed, that's one line Sam doesn't have to keep coming back to and one less worry.
