Description

Nottingham Trent University has an in-house Catering department that prepares meals and snacks for its staff and students on its three campuses based in Nottingham City Centre, at Clifton and at Brackenhurst, near Southwell. There may also be a requirement to deliver to other locations
The University requires a range of fruit and vegetables to be delivered to its 3 campuses on a daily basis. Deliveries are required during term time only at Brackenhurst campus, and 52 weeks a year at the Clifton and City campuses. At the City campus deliveries to the University's Conference Centre are also included in the requirements of this tender. There may also be a requirement to deliver to other locations within Nottingham city centre during the term of this agreement.
As part of its commitment to promoting Sustainability in all its activities, NTU is keen to appoint a supplier(s) who are able to work with the University to help achieve this. For example, the University has recently been awarded the Soil Association Food for Life Catering Silver Award. It is now working towards achieving the Gold Award and the appointed supplier will be expected to play a large part in supporting this process.
The requirement has been split into two separate Lots as follows:-
LOT l - Supply of Fruit and Vegetables to the City and Clifton Campuses. LOT ll - Supply of Fruit and Vegetables to the Brackenhurst Campus at Southwell. NB:- tenderers who wish to tender for this Lot must also complete any Lot ll specific questions.
Please note the following points:-
• Tenderers who wish to tender for both Lots should provide details relating to the supply of fruit and vegetables to all University campuses.
• Tenderers who wish to tender for Lot l only need only provide details as relates to the supply of fruit and vegetables to the University's Brackenhurst campus.
