Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council procured the supply and delivery of frozen food to its schools, commercial units, care homes and council canteens across Fife. The requirement covers deep-frozen products and includes providing nutritional and allergen information for every food supplied, using a standard spreadsheet for the council’s catering system. The supplier must keep that information current when products are added or substituted, and notify the catering team of changes before sending affected foods to council sites. This is a food supply and distribution requirement, with associated product information management, serving multiple types of public-sector catering locations across Fife.

The procurement has been awarded to William Yule & Son Limited, which was selected to supply the frozen foods. The awarded contract value is £6,363,520. One bid was recorded. The available process details identify the goods and delivery requirement, but do not establish the procedure or evaluation basis. The contract is recorded as active. No award date or contract period is stated here, so the duration and timing of the arrangement cannot be reported.

This award shows demand from Fife Council for a supplier able to source and deliver a broad frozen-food range to schools, commercial units, care homes and council canteens across the area. A credible competitor would need reliable distribution serving varied council sites, alongside the capacity to provide accurate nutritional and allergen data in the council’s required spreadsheet format. Suppliers also need disciplined product-change control: additions and substitutions must be reflected in updated information, with the catering team notified before affected items are dispatched. The requirement therefore suits food wholesalers and distributors able to combine dependable fulfilment with accurate product data and clear operational communication for public-sector catering.
