Unlocking Savings For Spectrum Care Members with Care Shop
We’re delighted to share some fantastic news with our Spectrum Care members.
As of December, the reduced pricing from Care Shop is now live, enabling all members to benefit from significant cost savings.
By placing orders as normal, members can enjoy competitive prices across a wide range of essential care supplies. This achievement underscores Spectrum Care’s commitment to supporting its members in delivering high-quality care while managing costs effectively.
Driving Down Costs for Greater Value
Over recent months, our Spectrum Care Directors have worked to negotiate better pricing with Care Shop, ensuring their offerings remain competitive and aligned with members' needs.
This collaborative effort has led to tangible savings, stimulating growth and enhancing the value Care Shop provides to our members. The results speak for themselves:
Overall Savings: Based on six months of sales data, Care Shop has successfully reduced the basket price for Spectrum Care members by an impressive 6.6%.
Market Competitiveness: A comparison of 117 product lines revealed Care Shop’s pricing came out lower than competitors, reinforcing their position as a trusted and cost-effective supplier.
Key Product Highlights
Care Shop’s commitment to supporting Spectrum Care members extends across several product categories, ensuring a broad range of essential items is available at reduced prices:
Gloves
Despite ongoing volatility in the glove market, Care Shop has delivered price reductions for both vinyl and nitrile gloves, which are among the highest-volume products for Spectrum Care members.
These reductions are particularly valuable given the essential nature of these items in maintaining hygiene and safety standards.
Chemicals
Spectrum Care members can now access lower prices on a variety of branded chemicals, including trusted names like Flash, Comfort, Persil, and CIF.
Additionally, Care Shop’s own-brand alternatives have seen price cuts, offering members greater choice and flexibility when selecting cleaning solutions.
Paper Products
Recognising the importance of branded options, Care Shop has reduced prices on Tork paper products.
This ensures that members preferring branded ranges can do so with confidence, knowing they’re receiving competitive pricing without compromising on quality.
Continence Management
Significant price reductions have been applied to the Tena and Ontex ranges, two leading names in continence care.
These changes provide Spectrum Care members with the ability to choose from a variety of high-quality options while keeping costs manageable.
Why Care Shop Stands Out
At Spectrum Care, we’re proud to partner with suppliers who share our commitment to quality, affordability, and reliability.
Care Shop consistently delivers on all three, and these latest price reductions are a testament to their dedication. By aligning with our goals, they’ve ensured that our members can access a comprehensive range of care products at some of the best prices in the market.
Care Shop’s focus on combining branded and own-brand solutions ensures that all members can find the products that best suit their requirements and budgets. Whether it’s daily essentials like gloves and chemicals or specialised items for continence management, Care Shop offers a dependable one-stop solution.
Looking Ahead
This partnership with Care Shop is a prime example of how Spectrum Care continues to advocate for its members. By negotiating reduced pricing and ensuring access to high-quality products, we’re empowering members to deliver excellent care while maintaining financial efficiency.
We’re committed to keeping you updated on further enhancements to our supplier agreements and any new opportunities to save. If you have feedback or specific requirements, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. Together, we can continue driving innovation and value within the care sector.
