## Summary

The procurement process undertaken by the City of Doncaster Council, documented on 28 April 2026, culminated in awarding contracts for cafe concession provision within the Danum Gallery, Library and Museum (DGLAM) and the Council's Civic Office VIBE Cafe. These contracts, which are situated in Doncaster, fall within the services category and involve catering services. The procurement followed an open competition method and was structured into two Lots, each having its own supplier. The first lot was awarded to RENSHAW GREEN LTD, and the second to Food Division Ltd. The contracts will last from early-April 2026 until April 2029, with possible extensions available at the Council's discretion.

These cafe concession contracts present a significant growth opportunity for businesses in the catering and food service industries, particularly SMEs. The opportunity allows suppliers to operate within central cultural and civic locations in Doncaster, enhancing visibility and market reach. Businesses that specialize in high-quality beverage and light refreshments, and those able to provide consistent and reliable service, would be well-suited to compete in such tenders. With potential contract extensions, the participating businesses can achieve longer-term operations, strengthening local market positions and expanding their client base. The inclusion of SME and VCSE suitability criteria highlights the Council's commitment to supporting varied business scales and community-focused enterprises.
