## Summary

The Forestry Commission is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "Wendover Forest Future Concession Opportunity". This initiative is centred around a vacant building in the Forest Centre of Wendover Woods, previously operating as a café. Interested parties are encouraged to submit their Expressions of Interest by 8th January 2020, aiming to explore innovative uses for the building on a commercial basis, with considerations for rent, income percentages, and utility costs. The location of this opportunity is Wendover Woods, Aylesbury, England, and it falls under the industry category of cafeteria services.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their footprint in the catering and hospitality sector.
