The procurement process was initiated by Carmarthenshire County Council for the supply of food waste caddies, specifically 13,500 x 23 litre and 9,500 x 5 litre caddies to aid kerbside recycling collections in Carmarthenshire, UK (region UKL14). The process follows a selective procurement method and was conducted under a mini-competition within Lot 7 of the ESPO Refuse & Recycling Products Framework (860_26), concluding with an award. The tender, tagged with both award and contract status, was finalised on 31st July 2026, with the contract active from 15th July 2026 to 31st March 2027.

This procurement presents opportunities primarily for businesses in the waste management and similar sectors, particularly those specialising in manufacturing waste and rubbish containers, as indicated by the CPV classification. IPL PLASTICS (UK) LIMITED, a small to medium-sized enterprise located in Tamworth, was successfully awarded the contract, thereby highlighting chances for SMEs to thrive under public sector contracts. This award, valuing at £81,075 gross, demonstrates the potential for growth and collaboration between local authorities and specialised suppliers aiming to expand their product offerings in environmental solutions and engage in frameworks that cater to communal recycling efforts.
