## Summary

Post Office Limited is seeking a retailer to add a Post Office Local counter to an existing or planned retail business at Eastfield Side, NG17 4JZ. The service would be integrated into the shop so customers can use Post Office services during the retailer’s opening hours. The layout and design would be agreed to fit the retail business. The requirement is for post office counter services, delivered as part of a wider retail operation.

The buyer invited offers through an open, competitive flexible procedure with a multi-stage assessment of postmaster suitability. The submission deadline was 27 October 2026 at 23:59 UTC; the stated award decision date was 27 November 2026. The contract period was set to run from 27 December 2026 to 27 December 2076. The listed procurement value is £8,000 gross. The tender description estimates Post Office fees of £8,000–£14,000 per year at the current location. The assessment first applies a mandatory pass/fail review of the business plan and finances; candidates who pass then proceed to assessment of their suitability to run a Post Office branch. The opportunity is a single requirement, rather than a procurement divided into separate lots.

This opportunity is intended for a retailer able to incorporate counter services into an existing shop or a proposed retail business, and to offer them over the shop’s opening hours. The buyer will agree the layout and design to suit the business, which may help retailers adapt their premises to the service. Applicants need a viable business plan and finances that pass the mandatory financial assessment, followed by evidence that they are suitable to run a Post Office branch. The stated suitability indicates that the opportunity is considered appropriate for small and medium-sized businesses and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. It is therefore relevant to retailers with the financial capacity and operational capability to sustain an integrated Post Office service.
