Ten years. It is hard to believe, but Smarta Switch has now spent a decade helping businesses across Devon and Cornwall stop overpaying for their utilities. We started in 2015 with a simple idea, that local businesses deserved someone in their corner who would tell them the truth about their bills, and we are still here doing exactly that.
What a decade looks like in numbers
We have worked with hundreds of organisations across the South West in that time, from pubs and bakeries to leisure centres, manufacturers and charities. This year alone we saved businesses a combined £348,319. Individual results ranged from 9% to 63% off energy bills, depending on what people were paying before we got involved.
Those are not abstract figures. Every one of them is a real business keeping more of its own money.
How we have stayed different
The market is full of national brokers run out of call centres. We have never wanted to be that. What has kept people with us for ten years is straightforward:
- A local team you can actually reach. Personal service, not a queue.
- Honest advice. We tell you what we are paid and what your real options are.
- Ongoing management. We do not switch you and disappear, we keep watching your contracts.
That approach shows up in our reviews, a steady run of five-star ratings on Google, and in the case studies we have built across just about every kind of business you can think of.
What comes next
We are not coasting on the anniversary. There is plenty we are building for 2026:
- A community network so our customers can benefit from each other
- Automated quarterly savings reports, so you can always see what we are saving you
- Deeper support for the manufacturing and hospitality sectors that feel utility costs most
The goal has not changed in ten years. We want to be the most trusted business cost-reduction broker in Devon and Cornwall, and the only way to earn that is one happy customer at a time.
Still the same promise
We help businesses save on energy, water, merchant services, business mobile and ultrafast broadband. We’re paid by the supplier when you switch, never by you, so there is no fee for the review or the work.
What to do this week
If we have not looked at your bills yet, there is no better time than our tenth year to fix that. Upload a recent bill at /upload-bill/ and we will review it for free and show you what a decade of doing this properly can save you.
