## Summary

The public procurement process initiated by The City of Liverpool College involves the provision of laundry and linen services, primarily aimed at its School of Hospitality & Catering. Located at the Duke Street centre in Liverpool, the college operates three training kitchens and four realistic working environments, including a student café, bakery, restaurant kitchen, and restaurant. This procurement falls under the services category and was conducted using an open competition method, classified as a below-threshold procurement. The contract, which was awarded on 11th September 2025 to Liverpool Community Launderette Ltd t/a Kitty's Launderette, is valued at £15,000, with a total potential value of £18,000 when including extensions. The contract is set to run until 31st July 2028, with the possibility of extending for up to two additional one-year periods, potentially lasting until July 2030.

This laundry and linen services contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in laundry management services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Liverpool region. Given the emphasis on quality, price, added value, and corporate responsibility, businesses that excel in these areas stand a competitive chance. With a consistent workflow that includes the laundering of various uniforms and linens, this contract allows for steady business growth. The nature of the service, involving weekly pickups and returns, ensures recurring business and a stable relationship with the college, making it an attractive prospect for potential suppliers looking to expand their market presence in public sector contracts.

## Notice

The School of Hospitality & Catering at The City of Liverpool College are awarding a 3-year contract (plus the option to extend for 2 x 1 years) for the laundry and linen service. There are many items that need to be laundered such as baker's tops, chef jackets, aprons, white coats, napkins, neckties and hats. The School is based at our Duke Street centre and our operation consists of 3 training kitchens, and 4 realistic working environments (student cafe, bakery, restaurant kitchen and restaurant) We opted against preliminary market engagement as we understood the College's requirements, and did not need to test the market.
