What this market looks like
14 post and telecoms contracts in South East England carry a published end date, worth £4.4m between them. They are held across 12 buyers, and the typical one is worth £125k.

14 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.

The contracts here are most often held by GREENS PRINTING SERVICES LIMITED (1), THE ENVIRONMENT CENTRE (TEC) (1), Royal Mail Group (1).
