Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees is managing the procurement process for the "Seasonal Trading Sites Concession - Ice Cream Licences 2025-2027". This public authority is seeking suppliers to provide ice cream and related products across four parks in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom: Beaumont Park, Crow Nest Park, Wilton Park, and Greenhead Park. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically catering and similar products. The tender, identified as KMCFM-047, was finalised in the award stage on 8th July 2025, with a contract period from 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2027. The procurement method is characterised as "Below threshold - unknown" and the concession contract does not guarantee supply volume, which will be influenced by seasonal demand and other factors.

This tender presents opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in catering and food services, particularly those capable of adjusting to seasonal demands. The concession licences for ice cream services in popular parks offer a significant growth avenue for businesses that can efficiently manage peak and off-peak periods. Companies like Super Softee Ices, Mr Juicy Ice Creams, and Super Whippy Ice Cream Limited, all of which have been awarded sections of this contract, demonstrate that established local suppliers have successful engagement strategies. Businesses keen on expanding in the public sector or increasing their service locations would find this contract beneficial, especially those based or operating in the UK regions UKE44 and UKE41.
