## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, based in Cardiff, has recently completed an open tender procurement process for the provision of fresh and frozen meat, poultry, cooked meats, bacon, and sausages. This procurement falls under the health sector, with deliveries targeted at various healthcare sites across Wales. The process has now moved to the award stage, with contracts signed on 17th July 2024. This contract spans three years with an option for a one-year extension and covers five lots: Fresh & Frozen Raw Meat, Fresh & Frozen Cooked & Raw Poultry, Chilled Cooked Meats, Bacon & Sausage (North & East), and Bacon & Sausage (South & West). The total value of the awarded contracts is approximately £13.85 million.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the food supply industry, particularly those specialising in meats and poultry. Firms with robust supply chains and capabilities to manage large-scale deliveries across various NHS Wales sites will find this contract beneficial for business growth. Given the large scale and consistent demand, even non-core product lines hold potential for considerable economic gain. Large suppliers such as Castell Howell Foods Limited, which secured all five lots, demonstrate that both price competitiveness and quality management are critical for success. SMEs that can align with such criteria also have substantial chances of competing in future tenders.
