## Summary

NHS Supply Chain has completed the procurement process for the "Beverages, Confectionery and Snacks 2025" framework. This procurement falls under the food, beverages, tobacco, and related products category, and it covers NHS Trusts across the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the framework initially valued at £40,000,000 over 24 months, potentially extending up to £83,200,000 over 48 months. Key contract signings commenced on 2nd December 2024, following a structured lot-based tender process that involved multiple suppliers for each product category.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for suppliers within the food and beverage industry, particularly those specialising in large-scale, integrated supply solutions for healthcare settings. The tender selected multiple suppliers for various lots, covering a wide array of products such as coffee, tea, water, juices, snacks, and confectionery. As a result, suitable businesses include those capable of meeting high-volume demands and ensuring consistent quality and delivery, thereby positioning themselves as reliable partners to the NHS for the supply of essential food and beverage products.
