The tender, titled "RSPB Lake Vyrnwy: Supply of native trees for planting 2024," falls under the industry categories of Agricultural, Farming, Fishing, Forestry, and related products. The buying organisation, RSPB, located in Cardiff, is seeking to purchase 8,600 trees divided into two lots, with quotations and associated queries to be emailed to Sam Sharpe at RSPB by 1st September 2024. The procurement stage is currently in the Tender phase, with the deadline for tender submissions set for 3rd September 2024, and award decisions expected by 15th October 2024. Delivery of the trees is scheduled to start in early November 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in forestry and nursery products as well as those involved in sustainable and organic agriculture.

Moreover, the contract welcomes bids from consortia, making it an attractive proposition for smaller enterprises to collaborate and fulfil the requirements collectively. The successful bidder will not only gain a substantial contract but also position themselves as a key player in the market for ecological and conservation projects spearheaded by prominent conservation organisations like the RSPB.
