What this market looks like
16 freight, logistics and travel contracts in North West England carry a published end date, worth £14m between them. They are held across 12 buyers, and the typical one is worth £110k.
14 of them expire within twelve months, and 3 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 88% of this market back in play inside a year.
18 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 17% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
2 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 Nuclear Restoration Services Limited (3), The City of Liverpool College (2), Cheshire West and Chester Council (2).
The contracts here are most often held by ESSAR OIL (UK) LIMITED (1), Hyde Group Limited (1), A.G. GATES LIMITED (1).
