Summary of the contracting process

The process falls under the industry category of catering services, situated in the City of London. It is at the award stage, as indicated by the tag "award" and "contract." The contract, valued at £117,840 GBP, was signed on 3rd March 2026 and remains active through to 17th July 2026. The procurement method used was direct, handled below threshold and without competition, highlighting its expedient nature for a sub-central government public authority. Key involvement is from "Streetfoodmarkets Ltd" in London, responsible for services without competitive bidding, ensuring vendor replacements if necessary.

This tender presents potential growth opportunities for businesses specialising in catering services within London's metropolitan area. With no competition in the procurement process, small to large-scale catering companies might find future opportunities to partner or engage with public sector events managed by the City of London.

Regular updates within this contract further imply sustained engagement and potential for ongoing collaboration beyond the summer receptions.
