Nev had taken to sea as a crab fisherman, following in his father's footsteps. But then he injured his arm in a fishing accident off the Cornish coast in 2001. His brother Rich, just back from backpacking around Central America, headed down to Newlyn to help him recuperate. They quickly realised that there was a market for fresh hand picked crab meat, so with a limited budget and a homemade crab boiler,they started picking crab and supplying local pubs and restaurants. Hence the beginning of the Newlyn Crab Company journey. In the last 20 years Nev and Rich have worked hard together to create the company they are proud off, although the original company has now been divided into two different companies, they still work very closely together to produce the finest crab products for the likes of Waitrose, Able & Cole and Booths. As a company we take our responsibility very seriously, all boats landing to us are registered fishing vessels, we are stringent with our checks and procedures, to make sure no undersized or egg laden females are landed to us. The boats are checked by the MMO (Marine Management Organisation) to ensure compliance, with hefty fines for boats and processors that do not comply. We are also routinely checked by the Cefas (Centre of environment, fisheries aquaculture science) Who are the government's marine and freshwater science experts. They help keep our seas, oceans and rivers healthy and productive and our seafood safe and sustainable. We are proud as a business to be part of the community to support the health of the marine environment, keeping our seas clean and productive for future generations and sustainability. To install a solar panel array on the roof of the factory to reduce our carbon footprint and significantly reduce our energy bills. The purchase of this system is part of a grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. We will assess tenders received on a Most Economically Advantageous Tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d0c0fd8-4f42-471b-b1aa-a9e5b599d2d4 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 May 2024 | | Submission deadline | 13 Jun 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Jul 2024 - 30 Aug 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £55,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NEWLYN CRAB COMPANY LTD | | Locality | PENZANCE | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR20 8FR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Mousehole, Newlyn & St Buryan | | Westminster constituency | St Ives | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy ### Codes - 09331000 - Solar panels - 09332000 - Solar installation ## Release History - 17 May 2024 at 10:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d0c0fd8-4f42-471b-b1aa-a9e5b599d2d4 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d0c0fd8-4f42-471b-b1aa-a9e5b599d2d4 17th May 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/cd80b88a-9ff6-4e83-b749-4c04be77efe0 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
