Summary of the contracting process

Cardiff University, as the contracting authority, has successfully completed a procurement process for "Retail Confectionary" under the CPV classification "Catering supplies." The tender was completed using the selective procurement method known as competitive dialogue, covered by the GPA. This process was primarily based around the supply of goods, namely catering supplies, situated in the United Kingdom, particularly in Cardiff (UKL region). The contract, valued at £1,320,191.64, was signed on 21st August 2025, with Chapple & Jenkins as the awarded supplier. Despite the completion of the tender, it is noteworthy that one of the lots was cancelled.
