UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was initiated by The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Cumbria to outsource catering services for the Appleby Horse Fair 2026. This contract falls under the 'goods' industry category, specifically focusing on miscellaneous food products, and covers delivery to multiple regions across the United Kingdom including UKC, UKD, UKE, and others. Managed through a 'limited' procurement method – below threshold with limited competition, the process is currently at the award stage, with the contract awarded to FELL AND DALES CATERING LTD on 10th June 2026. The contract, valued at £26,663.10 GBP net, was signed on the same day and serves as a completed status procurement.

This tender presents lucrative business opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) keen on public sector contracts and those specialising in catering and food distribution. Companies based in or near the delivery regions stand a better chance of leveraging logistical advantages. Such opportunities can enhance business profiles and open pathways for further public sector engagements, increasing potential growth and market presence.
