Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council has completed the procurement process for supplying refuse sacks under the tender ID TD2315. The contract has been awarded to Cromwell Polythene Ltd, an SME based in West Yorkshire. Categorised under the industry code for polythene waste and refuse sacks and bags, this procurement was carried out through a selective method, specifically as a call-off from a framework agreement. Although the tender process ended on 8th December 2025, the awarded contract will commence on 1st February 2026 and is set to run through 31st January 2029, with options to extend up to January 2031. The total contract value is estimated at £100,000, with primary deliveries scheduled for the East Midlands in the UK.

This tender represents a notable business opportunity, particularly for Small and Medium Enterprises capable of supplying polythene refuse sacks to local councils. Cromwell Polythene Ltd, an SME, has successfully secured the contract, which underlines Derby City Council’s commitment to engaging with smaller scale suppliers. Businesses providing similar goods and those looking to form strategic partnerships with public sector entities can consider participating in such procurement processes to enhance their market reach. The selective procurement method and framework-based call-off structure offer a streamlined opportunity for pre-qualified suppliers who are part of existing frameworks, thus potentially lowering the barriers to entry for capable SMEs.
