## Summary

Wiltshire Council has recently completed the award stage of a procurement process for the supply and rental of vending machines in its leisure centres, a project titled "CA2487 - Vending Machines in Wiltshire Council Leisure Centres." Located primarily in Trowbridge, the Council aimed to enhance the vending provision in six of its 20 leisure centres within the UKK15 region. The tender process was conducted using the open procedure method and was valued at £299,467.15 gross. Initiated with a pre-market planning phase in March 2026, the award was granted on 7 July 2026 and the contract is set to commence on 15 August 2026, with an initial three-year period and potential extensions up to six additional years. The procurement falls under the category of goods, with a CPV code of 42933300 for automatic goods-vending machines.

This opportunity offers substantial business growth potential for companies specialising in vending machine provision and management. It primarily targets small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), facilitated by an open process that received a total of five bids, with all four final-stage bids coming from SMEs. With the contract spanning up to nine years, including potential renewals, it offers a steady, long-term revenue stream for the selected company. Particularly, businesses already engaged in or looking to expand within the UK, specifically around the South-West, will find this contract especially appealing given its strategic regional focus. Ensuring competitive pricing and quality will be crucial, as these aspects accounted for 60% and 40% of the award criteria, respectively, in the tender evaluation.
