What this market looks like
9 clothing and uniforms contracts in London carry a published end date, worth £529m between them. They are held across 7 buyers, and the typical one is worth £120k.
3 of them expire within twelve months, and 1 is already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 33% of this market back in play inside a year.
20 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 29% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
3 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so a large 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 (3), London Borough of Islington (1), The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (1).
The contracts here are most often held by Crest Medical Ltd (3), Balmung Medical Handel GmbH (2), Full Support Healthcare Ltd (2).
