Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northern Housing Consortium Limited procured furniture services for Gentoo Group Ltd, a housing organisation based in Sunderland. The requirement covers the supply and associated provision of furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances other than lighting, and cleaning products. Delivery is in the Sunderland area. This is a goods procurement rather than a works or professional services contract, and it is relevant to businesses supplying household or housing-related furniture, appliances and associated products. The requirement sits within a wider housing procurement context, where reliable supply and fulfilment of furniture-related needs are important to the buying organisation and its end customer. The recorded classification is CPV 39000000, covering furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances and cleaning products.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. Northern Housing Consortium Limited used a selective procedure as a call-off from the Northern Housing Consortium Furniture Services Framework. Abri Trading Ltd was awarded the contract on 27 August 2026 for £1,920,000 including the stated GBP currency. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The tender had a submission deadline of 27 August 2026. The award is recorded as active and the tender as complete. The contract was awarded as a single recorded award to Abri Trading Ltd. The process concerns a two-year furniture services appointment for Gentoo Group Ltd under the existing framework arrangement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award indicates substantial, repeatable demand for furniture services within the housing sector in Sunderland. A credible competitor would need to supply the relevant mix of furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances and cleaning products, while managing fulfilment reliably for a housing organisation and its residents or properties. Experience operating through a framework call-off route would be commercially important, as would the capacity to support a requirement of this scale across a two-year service period. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so businesses in those categories may be well placed to develop a future proposition, either independently or through a framework-approved partnership.
