Following the de-regulation of the commercial water market in England and Wales from April 1st 2017, the open water market has provided the perfect opportunity for any eligible business customer to review their current water and wastewater spend.  By either agreeing a retail agreement with their existing supplier or switching to an alternative supplier, business customers now, more than ever, are keen to review and improve their current annual spend.

Whilst the non-household water market has been de-regulated since 2008 in Scotland, many business owners in the UK still aren’t aware that they’re able to switch.

Since the 1st April 2017, over 1.2 million eligible business customers have been given the freedom of choice who supplied their water and wastewater service provisions. Previously, this was determined based on where in the UK the premise was located and which wholesaler supplied the area.

• It gives businesses the freedom to negotiate the best smart procurement water plan for their business
• Business have more choice over their water supplier so are able to choose based on reputation, customer service and competitive tariff structures
• More water efficiency advice for businesses so they can understand how to reduce their water spend and mitigate wholesale price movement

Switching to an alternative supplier is straightforward and with the support of GB Water, your client can be benefiting from a competitive tariff within 28 days.

Your GB Water experts will consolidate the two service provisions to one global supplier, meaning your clients will receive one bill.

GB Water are paid directly by the supplier, meaning your client’s will never be invoiced directly by us.
