## Summary

The procurement process is initiated by Zero Waste Scotland Ltd for the "Rural Scotland Food Waste Roadshow," which is intended to promote food waste reduction among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in rural Scotland. The procurement method is open, and it is currently in the award stage. The estimated contract value is £48,258, with the award date being 13th September 2017. The roadshows are set to be delivered across eight locations in Scotland, including key areas such as Dumfries and Inverurie, with the initial four events scheduled before 31st March 2018 and the remainder planned for the 2018/19 financial year.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in event management, food sustainability, and community engagement, particularly those that offer services tailored to food and drink sectors. Companies with experience in organising workshops and promotional events, especially in rural contexts, would find this tender well-suited to their capabilities. Additionally, businesses focused on environmental protection and food waste reduction are encouraged to participate, as this initiative aims to create impactful local solutions for the SME audience facing challenges attending centralised events.

## Notice

Zero Waste Scotland wishes to promote the benefits of reducing food waste to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in rural Scotland, recognising the difficulties that many of these SMEs can have attending events in the Central Belt by facilitating more localised solutions intended to encourage, support and engage with the target audience.
