## Summary

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to take on the Sclattie Park Post Office in Aberdeen, either by purchasing the existing business or adding a Post Office Local to an existing or proposed retail business. The service involves providing Post Office counter services within a retail operation, with Post Office services available during the retailer’s opening hours. The branch layout and design will be agreed to fit the business. The location is Sclattie Park, Aberdeen. The opportunity is for a retail operator able to combine day-to-day retail trading with local Post Office services.

The buyer invited offers through an open, competitive flexible procedure with multiple stages to assess candidates’ suitability. Applications are assessed first through a mandatory pass-or-fail review of the business plan and finances; candidates who pass are assessed for suitability to run a Post Office branch. The deadline for submissions was 15 January 2027 at 23:59 UTC, with the award decision due by 15 February 2027 at 23:59 UTC. The contract period is scheduled to run from 15 March 2027 to 15 March 2077. The estimated gross value is £10,000. The branch’s estimated Post Office fees at the current location are £10,000–£12,500 per annum. This is a single opportunity, considered suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This opportunity is suited to a retailer able to operate a sustainable local business while incorporating Post Office services into its existing or planned premises. The successful candidate needs to demonstrate financial viability through a business plan and pass the initial financial assessment before their suitability to run a Post Office branch is considered. The staged assessment makes the ability to meet both the financial test and the branch suitability requirements central to competing. Retailers that can align Post Office service hours with their own opening hours and work with Post Office Limited to agree a suitable layout and design are well placed to pursue it. The contract offers scope for a long-term retail and postal-service operation in Aberdeen.
