Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council has initiated a tender process for the "Supply and Distribution of Fresh Produce," targeting the food sector across the East Midlands, United Kingdom. This tender aims to ensure regular deliveries of high-quality fresh produce, including fruits, vegetables, chilled dairy products, and fresh bread, to various sites such as schools and day services. The procurement stage is currently at the Award phase, with the total contract value estimated at £5,880,000 over a maximum term of four years. The contract is set to commence on 1st April 2020, following the tender period that ended on 17th February 2020.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in fresh produce supply, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies with capabilities to deliver consistently to diverse locations, including schools and care facilities, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Additionally, suppliers who can offer organic products may have an advantage, although it is not mandatory. Engaging in this procurement could significantly enhance business growth in the competitive food supply industry, especially in Nottinghamshire.
