The Contract will be for a period of Two (2) years from the commencement date of services with the option to extend for a further Twelve (12) months with an anticipated Contract start date of December 2023, with a contract value of circa £234k.

The successful supplier will provide Disposables for various event types including retail, conferences, exhibitions, corporate and numerous functions and meetings across both sites.
