## Summary

Scottish Borders Council bought fresh meat, cooked meats and fresh fish through the Scotland Excel Fresh Meat, Cooked Meats and Fresh Fish Framework (0322). The requirement covers meat and fish products for the council’s services, including fresh meat, poultry, prepared or cooked meat products and fresh fish. Delivery is in the Scottish Borders, with the procurement classified as goods and associated with CPV code 15110000 for meat products. The council is the buying organisation. This was a framework call-off rather than a standalone purchase, and the published requirement records the council’s regulated spend under the framework. The successful supplier was Shaws Fine Meats, an SME based in Lauder, indicating a local supply route for food businesses able to serve council requirements across the Scottish Borders.

This procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Scottish Borders Council awarded one call-off to Shaws Fine Meats under the Scotland Excel framework. The recorded contract value is £171,677.55. The spend relates to the 12-month period from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, and the contract was signed on 1 April 2026. The procurement used an open procedure to call off from the framework. The process was complete, with one bid received, which was from an SME. There was one lot covering cumulative framework spend. Price and quality weightings, and the stated award criteria, did not apply to this publication because it records cumulative spend under the collaborative framework rather than a new competitive tender.

This award is relevant to suppliers of fresh meat, cooked meat products and fresh fish that can fulfil public-sector food requirements across the Scottish Borders. A credible future competitor would need dependable sourcing, food handling and distribution arrangements, with the capacity to provide a broad range of meat and fish products rather than a single specialist line. The award demonstrates demand for a local or regional supplier able to operate through the Scotland Excel framework and support Scottish Borders Council call-offs. Shaws Fine Meats is recorded as an SME, so smaller food businesses with suitable operational capacity may be able to compete through the same framework route. Experience supplying public-sector or institutional customers would help demonstrate reliability, continuity of supply and service coverage.
