Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Leeds City Council concerns the supply of groceries to their catering services. This tender falls under the industry category of food, beverages, tobacco, and related products, and is classified as an open procedure for the procurement of goods. The procurement is in the planning stage, with a future notice expected by 16th May 2025. The contract, valued at £6,500,000 (gross amount £7,250,000), is planned to start on 1st August 2025 and will run until 31st July 2028, with a potential extension up to 31st July 2030. This opportunity is particularly relevant for businesses located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKE42 region.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the food supply industry to expand their client base by securing a contract with a prominent public authority. Leeds City Council, as a sub-central government buyer, seeks suppliers who can reliably deliver quality groceries to meet their catering demands. Companies specialising in food distribution, with a stable supply chain and compliance with regulatory standards, would be well-suited to compete. The sizeable contract budget underscores the potential for sustained revenue and business growth for the successful bidder. The open procedure enables wide participation, making it a valuable chance for established food suppliers to increase their market presence within the public sector.
