This open procedure targets goods in the disposable catering supplies category, with deliveries restricted to specific regions in the UK, namely UKH23 and UKJ3. The tender, identified by CS28797, commenced on 2nd April 2026 and marks the tender stage of the procurement process. It concludes on 7th May 2026 at 14:00 BST. Interested parties should be cognisant of the award period, set to end on 14th June 2026. This framework agreement presents substantial opportunities for suppliers of catering disposables, especially SMEs. By excelling in cost-competitive offerings, businesses can secure a place in the supply chain with contracts spanning from July 2026 to June 2030. Seven lots including cups and lids, food bags, paper products, cutlery, foil containers, cling film, and branded dispensers offer diversified entry points for suppliers. Given the emphasis on price in award criteria, businesses able to deliver quality products at competitive rates stand a strong chance of success.
