## Summary

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to add a Post Office Local service to an existing or proposed retail business at Mansell Road, Shoreham-by-Sea. The service will integrate Post Office counter services into the retailer’s business, with Post Office services offered during the retailer’s opening hours. The branch layout and design will be agreed with the successful retailer to suit the business. The opportunity is for a local retail operator interested in running Post Office services alongside their wider retail offer.

The buyer invited offers through an open, competitive flexible procedure with multiple stages to assess candidates’ suitability. The submission deadline set was 6 January 2027 at 23:59:59 UTC; the award decision was scheduled for 6 February 2027 at 23:59:59 UTC. The stated contract period runs from 6 March 2027 to 6 March 2077. The estimated Post Office fees at the current location are £10,350–£11,500 per annum; the published gross procurement value is £10,350. Assessment begins with a mandatory pass/fail review of the business plan and finances. Only applicants who pass proceed to assessment of their suitability to run a Post Office branch.

The requirement is suited to retailers able to incorporate Post Office services into an existing shop or a proposed retail business, and to operate them in line with the business’s opening hours. The buyer will agree the branch layout and design with the selected retailer, allowing it to fit the individual business. Applicants need to present a business plan and demonstrate financial viability: this is a mandatory pass/fail gateway, and failure prevents progression to the suitability assessment. The later assessment considers whether the candidate is suitable to run a Post Office branch. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises are identified as suitable candidates.
