The National Health Service Scotland (NHSS), under a procurement initiative titled "Chilled Prepared Sandwiches," has awarded contracts to PJS Foods Limited and Sandwich Larder Ltd. The procurement process involves the supply of a range of fresh prepared chilled sandwiches and rolls to be used by health boards across Scotland. The total contract value for each supplier is £1,296,000, and the contracts were signed on 24th October 2022 with a duration of 270 days. The procurement method used was an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender for chilled prepared sandwiches offers business growth opportunities for suppliers specializing in providing fresh and prepared food products, particularly those with experience in supplying the healthcare sector. The awarded contract covers various NHS Scotland Health Boards and Council Areas, creating potential business avenues for suppliers looking to expand their presence in providing quality food services within the public healthcare system. The tender process was conducted to meet the additional demands of the Scottish Health and Social Care sector during the Covid-19 pandemic, necessitating a 9-month extension to the existing framework with a planned recommencement of tendering by April 2023.
