What this market looks like
17 agriculture, farming and fishing contracts in London carry a published end date, worth £233m between them. They are held across 11 buyers, and the typical one is worth £109k.
7 of them expire within twelve months, and 4 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 41% of this market back in play inside a year.
21 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 21% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
4 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so part of this market is reached by getting onto a supplier list first and competing for call-offs afterwards.
The most active buyers are SUPPLY CHAIN COORDINATION LIMITED (2), Natural England (2), Corporate Officer of the House of Lords (2).
The contracts here are most often held by AG Axton & Sons (Wholesale) Ltd (2), Arthur Brett Catering Ltd (2), Arthur David (Food with Service) Ltd (2).

Regions come from the buyer's published NUTS code, which is the location of the buying authority rather than always the place the work happens. Contract end dates are published by buyers on contract details notices. Re-tender windows are computed estimates, not announcements.
