Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured 210 tonnes of white road salt for delivery in the North West of England. This is a goods supply requirement focused on providing road salt to support National Highways’ operational needs in the area. The procurement covers the supply and delivery of the specified salt order rather than associated works or services. Businesses operating in road salt production, distribution, wholesale supply or logistics may find the requirement relevant, particularly those able to serve the North West. The buyer is National Highways Limited, based in Birmingham, and the named supply requirement is for its North West Area 13 operations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 2 September 2026 to J C Peacock & Co Limited. The awarded value was £17,476.20. The contract period runs from 3 September 2026 to 11 September 2026. The tender submission deadline was 1 September 2026 at 23:00. This was a selective procurement made as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than a standalone open tender. The published procurement value was also £17,476.20. The award was recorded as active, with J C Peacock & Co Limited as the selected supplier. The requirement was classified as goods and concerned road salt.

For suppliers considering future National Highways requirements, this award demonstrates demand for white road salt supplied into the North West through a framework call-off route. A credible competitor would need established access to suitable road salt, dependable storage and distribution arrangements, and the capacity to fulfil a concentrated delivery requirement within a short operational window. Experience supplying public-sector or highways customers would help demonstrate reliability, while robust logistics and regional coverage would be relevant to delivery performance. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist suppliers may also be well placed where they can meet the framework’s requirements and demonstrate consistent supply capacity.
