UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to incorporate a Post Office Local counter into an existing or proposed retail business at Anniesland Post Office. The service would bring Post Office counter services into a wider retail operation, using the same opening hours as the host business. The exact counter layout and design will be agreed with the successful retailer to fit the business. This is a service opportunity for retailers able to operate a customer-facing shop while providing Post Office services. The buyer is Post Office Limited, a public undertaking, and delivery is in Anniesland, United Kingdom.

The process has reached tender: Post Office Limited invited offers through an open, accelerated competitive flexible procedure for a light-touch concession contract. It uses multiple stages to assess postmaster candidate suitability. Expressions of interest and offers were due by 7 February 2027 at 23:59 UTC, with the award decision due by 7 March 2027 at 23:59 UTC. The contract period is 7 April 2027 to 7 April 2077. The published tender value is £8,000 gross, while the estimated Post Office fees for the current location are stated as £8,000 to £14,000 per year. The single lot is evaluated first on a mandatory pass/fail assessment of the business plan and finances, followed by suitability to run a Post Office branch.

This opportunity suits an SME or voluntary, community or social enterprise that already runs, or is prepared to establish, a sustainable and customer-facing retail business. Applicants need to show a credible business plan and finances and meet the buyer’s suitability requirements for running a Post Office branch. The successful retailer would need the operational capability to integrate Post Office counter services into its premises, provide consistent customer service during the business’s opening hours and work with Post Office Limited on the counter’s layout and design. It is particularly relevant to retailers seeking to add a recognised public-facing service to an existing shop or to build that service into a new retail proposition.
