## Summary

The Canterbury City Council, acting on behalf of the Canterbury Environment Company (Canenco), has completed the tender process for the "Supply & Fit of Tyres across the Canenco Fleet." The successful contract was awarded on 28 April 2026 to Watling Tyre Services Limited. This contract involves the procurement of tyres for heavy and light-duty vehicles within Canenco's fleet and is set to commence on 1 June 2026, running through to 31 January 2029. The Council, classified under sub-central government public authority, facilitates this procurement process using an open procedure, ensuring broad participation from potential suppliers. Interested parties were required to register through the Kent Business Portal to express their interest, with submissions originally due by 16 March 2026.

This contract presents a growth opportunity for businesses specializing in vehicle maintenance and tyre services, particularly those with experience in supplying tyres for diverse vehicle requirements, including trucks. The open procedure allows small-to-medium enterprises to compete effectively, as demonstrated by the successful bid from Watling Tyre Services Limited, a notable SME based in Gravesend. Given its sizeable value of £392,898 gross, the contract could significantly boost the supplier's market presence and revenue streams. Entrepreneurs and businesses equipped to handle large-scale vehicle fleet requirements and capable of meeting stringent service delivery KPIs have an excellent chance to benefit from similar procurement opportunities in the future.
