## Summary

Post Office Limited sought a retailer to take over the existing Post Office branch business at Cassiobury Park, or incorporate a branch into an existing or proposed retail business. The requirement is to provide post office counter services from the branch’s existing location in the United Kingdom. The procurement describes the retailer taking responsibility for the retail business and premises, so it concerns operating a customer-facing convenience or other retail business alongside Post Office services, rather than supplying equipment or construction work. The branch is identified as Cassiobury Park 098033.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded by direct award to FREEDOM CONVENIENCE LTD. Post Office Limited says the retailer assumed responsibility for the retail business and premises, and that a direct award maintained continuity of Post Office services at the existing location. The award date was 16 October 2026. The contract period runs from 5 November 2026 to 5 November 2076. The awarded value is £44,000 gross. The description separately estimates Post Office fees at the current location at £44,000–£47,000 per annum. There was one lot, marked suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. No evaluation criteria are stated.

This award shows demand for a retailer able to operate the Cassiobury Park Post Office counter as part of a retail business and take responsibility for the existing business and premises. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need the capacity and retail operating capability to maintain customer-facing branch services at the location, alongside the commercial ability to run the associated retail operation. The selected supplier is a small business, and the sole lot was identified as suitable for SMEs, indicating that this requirement was not restricted to large suppliers. The procurement was handled by direct award to preserve continuity at the existing branch; it does not demonstrate a competitive evaluation or specify particular accreditations, experience thresholds or technical qualifications. The opportunity is specific to operating this branch, not general post office service provision.

## Notice

Post Office Ltd is looking for a successful retailer to either purchase the current business or incorporate a Post Office branch into their existing or proposed business. Estimated Post Office fees in the current location in the range of PS44,000 - PS47,000 per annum.
