Summary of the contracting process

This procurement covers the supply of vegetarian and vegan food products for consumption in catering outlets across the Parliamentary Estate in London. The requirement includes vegan packs and other miscellaneous food products, so it is relevant to food manufacturers, wholesalers and specialist catering suppliers able to provide a dependable range of plant-based products. The stated buying organisations are the Corporate Officer of the House of Commons and the Corporate Officer of the House of Lords. The delivery address is the Houses of Parliament, London SW1A 0AA, within the United Kingdom. This is a goods contract focused on supplying products rather than catering, hospitality or food-service staff. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Vegetarian Express LTD on 4 August 2026. The awarded value is £300,000. The contract runs from 10 July 2026 to 9 July 2027. It was conducted as a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with a tender submission deadline of 29 May 2026 at 12:00. The estimated procurement range was £150,000 to £300,000. The award covered the supply of vegetarian and vegan products for the Parliamentary Estate. The selected supplier is recorded as holding an active award. The opportunity was evaluated through the framework call-off route; the available procurement information does not set out a separate quality, price or technical weighting.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates an established requirement for regular, large-scale plant-based food supply to parliamentary catering outlets. A credible competitor would need a broad and consistent range of vegetarian and vegan products, including packaged vegan options, together with the capacity to fulfil deliveries reliably across a high-profile estate. Experience supplying institutional, hospitality or public-sector catering customers would help demonstrate operational fit. Suppliers should also be able to work through a framework agreement call-off process and manage product availability, ordering and delivery to the Houses of Parliament. The requirement is accessible to SMEs, making it relevant to specialist plant-based manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers with suitable supply-chain resilience.
