Summary of the contracting process

The Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process titled "Costa Coffee Spend LUFHT," under the industry category of goods, specifically focusing on coffee, tea, and related products. This tender was located in Liverpool, UK, and is part of a strategic procurement review for the year 2026-27. The contracting process was executed under "below threshold - unknown" procurement methods, leading to the award, with the contract becoming active on 1st April 2026 and ending on 31st March 2027. The trust, functioning under central government authority, has its main office at Aintree House, Longmoor Lane, Liverpool, with a total contract value of £60,000 gross.

This procurement presents opportunities for businesses within the coffee supply sector to potentially collaborate with large public institutions like the NHS Trust. With Costa Coffee already involved as the awarded supplier, large-scale coffee providers or those aspiring to service healthcare facilities could find avenues for growth. Suppliers with the capability to offer competitive pricing and fulfill large quantity demands within specified quality standards would be well-suited to such opportunities, aligning their strategic objectives with public sector demands. Given the contract's focus on goods, specifically coffee products, companies in this niche are ideally positioned to benefit from partnerships or sub-contracting arrangements that may arise from similar tenders in the future.
