Legal Justification

The original intention was that a procurement exercise would be undertaken during 2022 to have anew contract in place from Jan 2023. Unfortunately, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in Feb 2022 has had a significant impact on both the supply of goods/services and increasing inflation rates on a global scale. This is a situation impacting on both a national and international perspective, affecting economies on a global scale and is not unique to the foodservice sector or the UK, but is affecting whole economies on a global scale.
