Description

You are invited to bid for the 3-year contract to provide floral displays in Littlehampton, West Sussex for the Town's 14 Gateways, 4 Roundabouts, Manor House Gardens, and the Town Centre's floral displays.

Littlehampton Town Council is looking for a contractor/s who will deliver displays of both high impact and quality. The displays will become a talking point for the Town and give the gateways a "wow" factor. In addition to spectacular colours, height and depth are also required. Planting choices must be hardy and able to survive in a marine and highway environment.

The contract could be split so that one contractor provides the bedding plants, and another delivers the planting and maintenance element.

Littlehampton is a medium sized coastal town with a population of approximately 29,000 people. Littlehampton is a popular day trip seaside destination drawing in thousands of visitors from across the south-east each year.

The town's main retail area is concentrated around the pedestrianised High Street where the majority of the additional summer planting scheme is situated.

The Town council and residents take great pride in its floral displays for both the local community and visitors alike.

For further information please refer to the specification.
