Introducing Compound Group

We are an innovative strategy consulting agency founded by Timothy Lewis to help hospitality and leisure-focused businesses achieve greater commercial success, operational excellence, and customer satisfaction. From pop-ups to global household-name brands, Compound Group specialises in strategic, commercial and operational advisory to businesses who must dazzle their customers on at every single touchpoint.

It all began with an idea. Timothy saw incredible creators and entrepreneurs in the London hospitality sector who were offering world-class products, services, and customer experiences, but they were struggling with commerciality, operational consistency, and business strategy. He knew that with the right guidance, these professionals could drastically enhance their businesses.

It started with Timothy as a one-man-band freelancer, bringing in subject matter experts like interior designers and content creators to fill in gaps of projects. It quickly snowballed into a consortium of various industry professionals (from KPMG partners to executive chefs to prominent operators and investors) who each leaned in to client projects. This unique combination of skillsets and viewpoints gave clients unmatched value for money, and we soon earned a reputation for XXXX.

Timothy had the idea of forming an agency that would specifically advise on these all too commonplace shortcomings. Alas, The Compound Group was born. A unique strategy consulting agency that specialises in assisting hospitality and leisure-focused businesses achieve greater commercial success, operational excellence, and customer satisfaction. Clients grew from pop-ups and independent groups, through to globally renowned household name brands in the hospitality, leisure, food & beverage, restaurant & bars groups, hotel brands, and alcohol brand spaces.

As Timothy's portfolio of work expanded, he began to attract bigger and more prominent clients. The quality of his work was exceptional, with nominations for prestigious awards and hundreds of press articles in prominent publications. His clients were consistently impressed with the level of service he provided. This success led to further growth, and Timothy soon found himself with more work than he could handle alone.

To keep up with the increasing demand, Timothy decided to expand his operations and form a company, and thus Compound Group was born. As the company continued to grow, it began to offer a wider range of services, including private equity, which allowed the company to take a more hands-on approach in helping businesses achieve their goals.

Today, Compound Group is a well-respected hospitality consulting agency that helps businesses across the globe ideate, develop, and implement concepts, then optimise the commercial and operational growth strategy including organic growth and expansion planning (whether within a single city or scaling across the globe) to provide exceptional customer experiences. Timothy calls upon a small team of subject matter experts who specialise in everything from design and branding to operations and management, and Compound Group truly offers a one-stop-shop for businesses looking to excel in the hospitality industry.

Clients started to diversify into many businesses that had a customer experience element including childcare, XXX and XXX, or any business that might reasonably intersect with hospitality, including Food & Beverage manufacturing, distribution and wholesale, technology companies such as app developers, FMCG brands such as Absolut, Smirnoff, Haig Club and TEQUILA, and all sorts more. This breadth of clientele led to Timothy and Compound Group gaining a uniquely broad skillset and experience base, that has since been leveraged for the benefit of every client.
