Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council has completed a procurement process for the supply and delivery of alcoholic beverages and bar equipment, which falls under the category of "Beverages, tobacco and related products" in the industry classification. The procurement, conducted via an open procedure and carrying a value of £490,000, was focused on goods. It aimed to find a specialist company to provide a variety of alcoholic drinks along with the necessary dispensing equipment. This contract, located in the UKK24 region, began on 1 April 2025, with a core term of three years and a possibility of a two-year extension. The award was made on 31 March 2025 to Carlsberg Britvic, a large-scale supplier, following a competitive tender that evaluated quality and price, with an emphasis on electronic submissions.

The emphasis on a quality-to-price balance (40:60) suggests that businesses offering competitive pricing without compromising on quality stand a good chance.
