North Ayrshire Council has recently completed a procurement process for the provision of food vouchers as part of the Free School Meal Provision for January 2021. This tender, titled "Free School Meal Provision – Food Vouchers for January 2021," was awarded to Sodexo following a limited procurement method, which did not involve a prior call for competition due to the specific requirements of the service.
