The contract, titled "Winter Food Parcel Distributor," falls under the services category with a value of £15,000. The procurement stage was completed on November 18, 2022, with a contract period starting on November 21, 2022, and ending on March 31, 2023. The buying organisation, South Cambridgeshire District Council, based in Cambourne, East of England, conducted the procurement using an open procedure. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially those in the food supply or services industry, to engage with South Cambridgeshire District Council and contribute towards addressing food insecurity in the local community. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in providing food support services may find this tender particularly suitable. The aim of the contract is to ensure vulnerable individuals have access to nutritionally balanced food parcels through the Council's network of Warm Hubs in areas lacking community food provision. ## Notice As part of the Council's response to the Cost of Living Crisis, we are looking to procure the services of a food parcel distributor to link with our network of Warm Hubs to ensure that people attending these hubs also have access to food if they need it. South Cambridgeshire is a largely rural district with few food banks. Often community foodbanks are created for the purpose of supporting residents who live within that community and do not extend beyond the bounds of the Parish. Therefore SCDC is looking for a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to provide food support for our Warm Hubs where there is no community food provision. The aim of the food parcel distributor will be to provide support to those most vulnerable to help mitigate the cost of living crisis. The food provider will offer a nutritionally balanced parcel of foods to meet emergency food needs of the individual or a family.
