Description

Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish a concessions contract for the operation of Derby City Council Markeaton Park catering outlets (the "Outlets"). The scope of the Contract will include the management of: • The Orangery Café and • The Kiosk (the "Outlets"). This procurement is not divided into Lots. The Council does not consider that subdivision into lots would be appropriate, as this could risk tendering the execution of the Contract excessively technically difficult or expensive, and the need to coordinate different operators for the lots could seriously risk undermining the proper performance of the Contract and achievement of the Services' outcomes. The Council wishes to achieve the following outcomes for the services: • Establish a long-term partnership with an experienced operator • Enhance the existing catering offer at the Parks. • Offer a range of meals, snacks and beverages which address the needs of the customers and user groups of the park, reflecting current trends with daily specials and seasonal variations. • Promote healthy food and beverage options ensuring clear labelling of products. • Provide a responsive catering service for park activities and events. • Maintain a minimum Food Hygiene Rate of Four (4) • Offer added value to the overall park offer by attracting new customers and increasing footfall. • Financial stability for the Outlets through reduced costs and increased income due to a more commercial approach It is anticipated that the Contract will commence in December 2026. The estimated value of the contract over the maximum 20 year term is £10m. This has been calculated based on the total turnover estimated to be generated by the Operator at the Catering Outlets over the maximum 20 year term.
