Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire East Council, a public authority under sub-central government located in Crewe, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for the supply of 23-litre food waste caddies, to support its newly launched weekly food waste collection service. The tender, titled "Supply of 23ltr Food Waste Caddies," falls under the industry category of recycling equipment as the main procurement category is goods. The procurement method was selective, culminating in an award under a framework. The award was made to IPL Plastics (UK) Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Tamworth, United Kingdom. The contract was set for a period starting from 23 March 2026 to 30 November 2026, with a potential renewal extending up to 30 November 2027. The standstill period ends on 13 March 2026, with a scheduled contract signature due on 16 March 2026. The gross contract value is £768,960, with a net amount of £640,800.

This procurement presents a compelling business opportunity for companies involved in manufacturing and supplying recycling or waste management equipment, such as food waste caddies. The large-scale supply requirement of 180,000 units is particularly suitable for businesses with significant production capacity and experience in handling large orders under frameworks. Additionally, the potential for contract extension could offer ongoing supply opportunities. Firms with capabilities in providing durable, sustainable, and cost-effective solutions stand well to benefit from similar tenders, fostering growth through increased production, expanded market reach, and long-term partnerships with public sector entities like Cheshire East Council.
