This contract involves the purchase of Trustee Amenity Weedkiller Glyphosate and falls under the industry category of agricultural and related products. It was procured using a direct method, below the threshold without competition, due to the limited number of suitable suppliers that meet the specific product requirements and regulatory standards. The contract was awarded to Origin Amenity Solutions Limited, commencing on 21 July 2026 and ending on 21 July 2031, with a gross value of £50,000. The contract is in the award stage, with the official award date being 15 July 2026. The procurement is situated in the UKC12 region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents valuable growth opportunities for businesses that supply agricultural products, particularly those specialising in weed control and glyphosate products that meet regulatory standards. The direct award without competition indicates an opportunity for suppliers with proven reliability and compliance proficiency to engage in public sector procurement, making this a strategic opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the capability to meet these specialised requirements. Companies in similar fields looking to expand their portfolio with government contracts might find this tender and others like it, an advantageous entry point.
