Description

YPO are looking for Suppliers to be appointed onto a Framework for the supply and distribution of various Food Service categories direct to YPO customers, typically for use in the education sector, NHS, public sector buildings, charitable status organisations such as housing organisations and care homes, care catering, the prison service and sheltered housing within the public sector. The Framework is designed to meet the needs of all public sector organisations which include YPO’s internal requirements (staff canteen) and any of YPO’s wholly owned associated or subsidiary companies.

Lot Division

1 Groceries
  • Value: £500M

Covers (but not limited to) ambient food products, packaged and tinned goods, dried goods, soft drinks and bottled water, confectionery, pre-wrapped snacks and products suitable for making hot beverages such as tea and coffee. Other ad hoc consumable products can be added to the basket if required if delivery is needed at the same time e.g., foil, cling film, disposables, kitchen rolls, cleaning items etc. This framework is not suitable for contracts which only involve these ad hoc items and they should be supplementary to a core food basket of items. Some public sector customers may wish to use this Lot to buy alcoholic beverages (if these are available), to be used in theatres, entertainment venues, golf clubs etc. This is likely to be only on rare occasions or for ad hoc events.

7 Multi-Category Mix
  • Value: £500M

YPO is looking for Suppliers who can provide a one-stop-shop service by supplying products in two or more of Categories: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
