Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Swindon Borough Council is in the process of restructuring its procurement for Food and Catering Supplies, which was initiated as an open tender for various lots, including fresh produce and frozen foods, to be delivered within the Borough of Swindon. The procurement was intended to span an initial period of 36 months starting from 1 March 2021, with a potential 12-month extension. However, the process has been cancelled due to identified discrepancies in the tender documentation that were deemed to impact fairness and compliance with best value principles. A new tender opportunity is expected to be advertised shortly on relevant platforms.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the food supply chain, particularly those specialising in food and catering products, cleaning supplies, and disposables. Suppliers of fresh fruit, frozen foods, dry goods, and related services could greatly benefit from the forthcoming procurement process. It is advisable for interested businesses to prepare for participation in the new tender by ensuring they meet the necessary qualifications and are registered on platforms such as Contracts Finder and Supplying the South West.
