What this market looks like
24 food and catering supplies contracts in London carry a published end date, worth £539m between them. They are held across 10 buyers, and the typical one is worth £665k.
5 of them expire within twelve months, and 0 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 21% of this market back in play inside a year.
37 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 22% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
7 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 (5), Corporate Officer of the House of Commons (4), Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust (4).
The contracts here are most often held by BFS Group Limited T/A Bidfood (5), BFS Group Limited T/A Oliver Kay (3), Caterfood South West T/A Caterfood (3).
