The appointed supplier, BIOGEN (UK) LIMITED, will handle the waste collection, including a new weekly food waste collection service for households and commercial waste customers as per the Environment Act 2021. The contract, valued at GBP 645,000, runs from 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2034, with services being delivered within the MK42 9AP postal code area.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses particularly within the waste management sector. SMEs are especially encouraged to compete in such tenders. The introduction of a separate food waste collection service is likely to increase demand for specialist waste treatment services, creating a niche for businesses skilled in this area. Companies with experience in environmental compliance and innovation in waste disposal will find this an excellent opportunity to expand their portfolio and establish long-term contracts with local councils.
