Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process spearheaded by Cirencester Town Council sought to attract operators for a food and coffee kiosk at St Michael's Park in Cirencester, Gloucestershire. Classified under restaurant and food-serving services within the industry category, this service contract spanned the summer season from April to September 2026. The procurement method involved an award procedure with prior publication of a call for competition, progressing through the tender stage to reach an award. The tender sought proposals by 10 September 2025, and the contract was awarded on 12 September 2025 to Josser Enterprises Ltd for a duration of 540 days. With a focus on enhancing visitor experience, the contract aimed to partner with a provider who could also deliver community-driven events and activities.

This tender presents lucrative business growth opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) in the food and beverage industry, especially those experienced in community engagement and event management. By operating in a vibrant, community-centric park, the successful business would benefit from a steady flow of visitors and the chance to build brand loyalty among locals and tourists. Companies that specialise in mobile catering or have a proven track record in organising public events would be particularly well-suited to fulfill the requirements of this contract, increasingly becoming a cornerstone of the park’s attractions and contributing significantly to its lively ambience.
