NHS Supply Chain: Food is seeking a single supplier who will have the capacity and capability to deliver and possess the drive to work collaboratively with Trusts to provide the right solution and manage Multi-Temperature Distribution into the NHS and its Trusts for their patient and retail catering needs. This procurement is for: • the supply, storage and management of a selection of Chilled, Fresh, Frozen and Ambient products and distribution to Trusts within the NHS (the “Customer(s)”). • a unique opportunity to become a national distribution partner which aims to deliver significant savings to the NHS. The Framework Agreement will have an initial term of 24 months with an option to extend incrementally for up to a further 24 months. The contract will be for a maximum term of 48 months.
