This opportunity falls under the retail trade services sector and is designed to enhance the vibrancy of the city centre while supporting local economic recovery post-Covid-19. Interested bidders must submit their expressions of interest by July 16, 2021, and the contract will be managed through the Proactis Pro-Contract portal. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in retail trade services, particularly those that can provide high-quality speciality market offerings. Companies looking to enter or expand their presence in the West Midlands region, especially those focusing on sustainable and diverse retail options, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Participation in this market could help businesses not only tap into a growing customer base but also contribute positively to the local economy and community vibrancy. ## Notice The Council wishes to work with a market operator to deliver a monthly market on Worcester High Street for a period of three years from Autumn 2021, with the option to extend for a further two years upon agreement by both parties. The Council wishes to see a sustainable, high-quality speciality market which brings vibrancy to the city centre and does not detract from existing city centre businesses or the Angel Place market. It should increase visitor numbers to the city centre and broaden the quality and choice of Worcester's retail offer, offering products that cater for residents and visitors. The market should assist the ongoing economic recovery of the city following the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic as well as supporting its future growth.
