## Summary

The procurement process titled "Negotiated Contract for the Supply and Delivery of Christmas Trees" was conducted by South Lanarkshire Council, located in Hamilton, UK. This process falls within the goods industry category and was completed in November 2020. The procurement method used was an open procedure following a negotiated process, as only one bid was received exceeding the Council's Standing Orders threshold of £50,000. The contract, valued at £56,290, was awarded to Elveden Christmas Trees, with the award date recorded as 4th September 2020.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in horticulture and the supply of seasonal foliage, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality Christmas trees. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this as an ideal opportunity to compete, especially given the procurement's past emphasis on local suppliers. Businesses that can efficiently handle the logistics of delivery throughout the South Lanarkshire area will particularly be well-suited to engage in future contracts of this nature.
