UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council has successfully concluded a contract for the provision of ice cream products under the tender titled "Provision of ice cream product", specifically focusing on Walls impulse ice cream for delivery to the Games Pavilion in Valley Gardens, Harrogate. This procurement process fell under the 'Goods' category and was conducted using a limited procurement method due to its below-threshold criteria. The contract has been awarded to FCN Frozen Foods Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Leeds. The contract period commenced on 1st September 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st August 2026, with the contract being signed on 1st September 2025.

The tender offers opportunities for businesses specialising in food supply, particularly those capable of delivering frozen goods within North Yorkshire. Companies positioned within the region, or those with logistical capabilities for efficient delivery to Harrogate, would find this contract beneficial for business growth, particularly those that operate within the SME sector. The focus on specialised ice cream products presents a niche category potentially allowing smaller food suppliers to compete effectively. The successful awarding of this contract to FCN Frozen Foods Ltd illustrates the potential for competitive SME involvement in local council procurements.
