This public procurement process is classified under the "services" category and is governed by Northern Irish devolved regulations. Spanning fifteen distinct locations across the borough, including Tannaghmore Gardens and Lurgan Park, the contract holds particular relevance for those involved in the catering services industry. The procurement method employed is open competition, with the tender closing on 18th February 2026. The contracts are due to commence on 1st April 2026 and may be extended beyond their original two-year term by two additional years, subject to approval. This tender represents a strategic opportunity for businesses specialising in mobile catering services, especially those that are keen to expand their operations within the sub-central government sector. SMEs proficient in delivering quality food and beverage services can thrive, given the high emphasis on cost-effectiveness (75% of the award criteria) alongside quality (25%). The project's division into multiple ‘lots’ across various locations allows smaller enterprises to compete for one or several contracts, thereby facilitating broader market access. Companies positioned to provide high-standard, economically viable catering solutions are ideally suited for this procurement opportunity aimed at promoting business growth within the local community. ## Notice Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council is inviting tender applications for the purpose of providing mobile trading for barista style coffee and cold food services at fifteen separate 'lot' locations across the Borough. ### Lot Information Tannaghmore Gardens Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Tannaghmore Gardens Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Tannaghmore Farm Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Tannaghmore Farm Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Lurgan Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Lurgan Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Scarva Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Scarva Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Edenvilla Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Edenvilla Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Portadown Peoples Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Portadown Peoples Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Dromore Town Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Dromore Town Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Corbet Lough Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Corbet Lough Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Carnagh Forest Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Carnagh Forest Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Kernan Playing Fields Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Kernan Playing Fields Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Moneypenny's Lock Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Moneypenny's Lock Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Ardmore Recreation Centre Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Ardmore Recreation Centre Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Maghery Country Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Maghery Country Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Verners Bridge Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Verners Bridge Renewal: two possible one-year extension options Loughgall Country Park Provision of barista style coffee and cold food mobile catering services at Loughgall Country Park Renewal: two possible one-year extension options ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007571-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 -
