Glasgow Council seeks caterer for city parks

Glasgow City Council is inviting tender bids from caterers to provide a range of catering outlets in the city's parks.

The council is looking for caterers that can provide hot and cold food and drink, ice-cream and confectionery and a combination of the two services at several sites.

The agreement will be for five years, with the possibility of a 12-month extension if the council is satisfied with the caterer's performance.

Locations have been broken down into several lots, for the contract notice, at 25 parks including the Botanic Gardens, Victoria Park, Bellahouston Park, Alexandra Park, Kings Park and Mount Vernon Park.

A spokesperson for Glasgow City Council said: "The council is looking for potential caterers of vans and outlets to submit annual income offers to the council, which will allow them to trade within Glasgow parks."

The contract will start on 1 July 2016. Tenders must be submitted electronically by midday on 15 March at www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk
