Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council has completed a procurement process for the supply of hot beverage machines, pay-by-card machines, and related products to its County Hall food court in Leicester. This process fits within the industry category of food, beverages, tobacco, and related products, and specifically includes coffee beans and electric coffee makers. The procurement was managed as a call-off from a framework agreement, indicative of a selective procurement method. The tender stage concluded on 13th May 2026, with the contract commencing on 1st June 2026 and running until 31st May 2028. Located in Leicester, England, this opportunity initially sought to value the contract between £86,000 and £96,000 GBP, ultimately awarding £90,000 GBP to Matthew Algie & Company Limited, a large-scale supplier.

This tender represents an attractive business growth opportunity for companies in the beverage equipment sector, particularly those capable of supplying sophisticated coffee and card machine systems on a significant scale. Although the process might not specifically target SMEs or VCSEs, large suppliers with established capabilities in delivering such products can vie for similar opportunities and expand their presence in public sector contracts. Businesses with expertise in the operation and maintenance of electric coffee makers, especially those offering innovative solutions that enhance ease of use in high-footfall areas like food courts, will find themselves especially well-suited to such tenders.
