Classified under cafeteria services, this procurement involved an open procedure above threshold. This mobile food or drink site, formerly known for its ice cream offerings, attracted bids from SMEs capable of contributing to the seafront community. The concession license, valued at £82,500, starts on 1 April 2026 and ends on 31 March 2029. The final award was published on 11 March 2026, following the tender period that concluded on 4 March 2026. The site promises increased foot traffic, bolstered by the presence of beach huts and Skipper's Water Sports. This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses in the food and beverage sector, particularly those specialising in mobile services. With a high local profile and strong visitor numbers, the concession space is ideal for SMEs looking to enhance their market exposure and establish a stronger community presence in Seaford. The procurement method was designed to be inclusive of small enterprises, ensuring viable competition from local businesses. The significant footfall in the area draws from a vibrant seafront community and presents an excellent chance for businesses to expand and connect with a broader customer base during the three-year license period. ## Notice Seaford Town Council's highly sought-after concession spot situated on Marine Parade at Bonningstedt Promenade is available for tender. Bonningstedt Promenade is placed along the western part of the two-mile stretch of Seaford's popular seafront. The site is currently an ice cream concession; however, the current tender is open to any mobile food or drink business that can leave the site outside of trading hours. The Mobile Ice Cream Concession at Bonningstedt Promenade has been in situ for many years and is well known to residents and visitors as a destination to purchase ice creams. The concession site is a permanently reserved off road/on promenade space with plenty of room around the concession, becoming part of the seafront community. Bonningstedt Promenade is also home to 20 beach huts, some of which are rentals, and to Skipper's Water Sports, which increases footfall within the concession area.
