## Summary

Leicestershire County Council has concluded a procurement process for the "Street Lighting and Signage Supplies_2026" contract, aimed at supplying and delivering goods necessary for highway street lighting and signage improvements and maintenance. The contract, valued at £7.5 million, extends from 15th June 2026 until 14th June 2029, with potential extensions up to 2031, and was awarded under an open procedure to SMITH BROS. (CAERCONAN) WHOLESALE LIMITED. The procurement was conducted to facilitate infrastructure enhancements within the Leicestershire region, aligning with public authority requirements as overseen by the council at County Hall, Leicester (postal code LE3 8RA).
