SCEMES For Business

Connecting companies to the educational marketplace

SCEMES has been bringing together local and national suppliers with educational purchasers for ten years and is ideally placed to introduce companies to the educational marketplace.

The educational market is an enormous and often untapped source of business for small and medium sized companies in the UK. There are over 32,000 schools and colleges in the UK, all with independent control over their own budgetary spending and all needing to source a vast range of products and services to survive.

Schools need to source a huge range of products and services to keep their facilities running and to provide all the services needed to serve pupils and the local community. They want to maximise the potential of their school budgets by achieving value for money, but they also want to work with reliable and competitive businesses that they can trust.

Businesses that have secured contracts with educational establishments have reported that schools provide a steady and reliable source of business that can keep companies gainfully employed year after year.

With a huge amount of buying power, it’s clear that the educational marketplace is a source of enormous untapped potential, which businesses can finally take full advantage of, and which many are now directly targeting through advertising with SCEMES.
