## Summary

Bedford Borough Council has recently completed a procurement process for the provision of Grocery Food for Care Homes and other locations. This tender, classified under the CPV code for Food, beverages, tobacco and related products, had a total contract value of £400,000 and was awarded following a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period commenced on 1st July 2022 and will conclude on 1st July 2024, with the tender period having ended on 1st June 2022.

Companies that can meet the necessary standards for quality and reliability in food service are well-positioned to compete effectively for similar contracts in the future.
