## Summary

The Peterborough City Council is initiating the tender process titled "PRF 1282 - Peterborough City Market Relocation Soft Market Test," aimed at evaluating the market's input on the establishment of a new market prior to the deadline of 31 March 2022. This procurement falls under the construction work industry category, specifically focused on developments at Bridge Street, Peterborough, England. The tender is currently at the planning stage, with an engagement end date set for 16 December 2021. The council seeks to gather insights for multiple lots, including the transformation of a customer service centre into a fresh food retail space and the installation of outdoor kiosks for traders.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for businesses in the construction and retail sectors, particularly those with experience in refurbishment, design, and temporary installations. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as their insights and capabilities will be valuable in shaping the project. Engaging with this procurement could lead to significant business growth, given the essential nature of the services required for the new market setup.

## Notice

Due to the development at the Northminster site, the current Peterborough City Market site has to be vacant by 31 March 2022. The Council therefore needs to get a new market open before 31 March so that traders have a new location to move into. We subsequently wish to seek the market's views on this requirement, which will be broken up into the following lots: LOT 1 Lot 1 will be to transform 33-37 Bridge Street from the Council's customer service centre to become a fresh food retail offer housing two butchers, a fishmonger and a new deli. This will include the refurbishment and refitting of both the interior and exterior. LOT 2 For Lot 2 we will need a company that can design and manufacture three outdoor market kiosks which house four traders each and install them at Bridge Street. LOT 3 In the event that it is not possible for the works to be completed ahead of the indicated deadline, we will use Lot 3 to purchase twelve temporary pop-up stalls for the traders to use until the works are complete. The information gathered from this soft market test will be used to help develop the specification further, gauge the level of interest in this proposed procurement activity, and confirm viability of the proposed timescales.
