## Summary

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to incorporate a Post Office Local counter into an existing or proposed retail business at Three Bridges Road, RH10 1JT. The service combines Post Office counter services with the retailer’s own shop, allowing customers to use them during the same opening hours. The counter’s layout and design will be agreed with the selected retailer to fit the business. This is a service opportunity for a retail operator willing to host and run a local Post Office branch as part of its premises. The procurement concerns one branch and is intended to integrate Post Office services with a sustainable retail business, rather than provide a standalone Post Office site or a general retail service.

Post Office Limited invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure, using a multi-stage assessment of postmaster candidates. The buyer set 29 October 2026 at 23:59 UTC as the submission deadline and 29 November 2026 at 23:59 UTC as the end of the award period. The stated contract period runs from 29 December 2026 to 29 December 2076. The published estimated value is £8,000 gross; the description separately estimates Post Office fees at £8,000–£14,000 per annum for the current location. There is one branch opportunity. Evaluation first requires a pass/fail assessment of the business plan and finances; applications that pass then proceed to assessment of suitability to run a Post Office branch. Electronic submission is permitted, and applications are to be made in English.

This opportunity is aimed at retailers able to combine Post Office counter services with their own trading business, whether they already operate a suitable shop or are proposing one. The buyer describes the intended partner as a successful retailer with a vibrant and sustainable business, so applicants should be prepared to show that their retail operation can support the added service. The Post Office counter is intended to share the retailer’s opening hours, making the business’s ability to accommodate the service within its normal operation relevant. Applicants need a business plan and financial information for the mandatory initial assessment, followed by evidence that they are suitable to run a branch. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises are identified as suitable applicants. The counter design can be agreed to suit the retailer’s business.
