## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, a central government public authority based in London, undertook a procurement process titled "UK7: Event catering services for British Embassy Warsaw". This contract, categorised under services with the CPV classification for catering services, involved providing catering for an official event at the British Embassy in Warsaw, Poland. The procurement followed a limited competition method, as it fell below the threshold, and has now reached the completion stage. The activity was officially awarded on 12th May 2025, with the contract becoming active from 13th May 2025 to 30th June 2025. The contract’s gross value was set at PLN 137,232.

This tender presents opportunities for growth particularly for businesses specialising in event catering services, especially those familiar with the requirements and preferences of diplomatic missions or government-related events. Given the limited competition and below-threshold status, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Melon Catering, the awarded supplier, can successfully compete and expand their cross-border service portfolios. Businesses equipped to provide high-quality catering services and those looking to establish or enhance their reputation in international or government event servicing would find this type of procurement particularly advantageous.
