The Contract will be for a period of two (2) years from the commencement date of services, with an option to extend for a further twelve (12) months. The anticipated Contract start date of February 2025.

As a world-class international convention centre, Manchester Central requires products of the highest quality. The successful supplier will provide products for all onsite catering, including hospitality, banquets, conferences and exhibitions. Given the dynamic nature of the events industry, the supplier will be expected to respond to orders as required, potentially with a last minute or same day delivery, including Saturday orders.

Contract partners will be required to have periodic contract review meetings with the Company's Executive Chef. The frequency of such contract review meetings will be determined by Manchester Central and may vary from time to time. The meetings will discuss the performance of previous months' supply, the supply required over the next few months, highlighting any key large events coming up, and any positive / negative feedback with regards to product quality, account management, ordering and delivery.
