How do I win Food, beverages, tobacco and related products contracts in North East England?
Get onto the relevant DPS early — most public food buying now happens through them and joining is usually free and rolling. SALSA or BRC accreditation, allergen management evidence and reliable cold-chain logistics are baseline requirements; local sourcing and short supply chains score well since the Procurement Act put social value front and centre. NEPO is the front door: its portal (Open) carries the region's council tenders and its solution frameworks channel common categories, so registration there covers most of the market in one step. With only twelve buyers on the council side, relationships and framework positions compound quickly — win one authority and neighbouring evaluations will know your name.
