Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cardiff Council has awarded a contract for the "Period Dignity Programme – Supply of Sanitary / Feminine Care Products" as part of a Welsh Government initiative aimed at combating period poverty. This procurement process, which is designated as an open tender, has successfully completed and involved the acquisition of eco-friendly sanitary products, targeting young women of school age within the region of Cardiff (UKL22). The contract was signed on 2nd November 2020, with awards made across several lots, including single-use sanitary towels and reusable menstrual cups, with a total contract value of approximately £500,000 for single-use products.

This tender presents significant business opportunities for companies specialising in eco-friendly and sustainable hygiene products, particularly those focusing on sanitary towels, menstrual cups, and period pants. Suppliers that can provide high-quality, environmentally responsible products will find themselves well-suited to compete in future procurement processes, as the focus remains on addressing period dignity and poverty. The demand for suppliers willing to meet these criteria may lead to increased engagement from SMEs within the hygiene products industry, fostering growth within this sector.
