School food procurement — standards-compliant, price-stable, easy to run.
Multi-academy trusts, independent schools and in-house catering teams — we run competitive food procurement tenders that meet School Food Standards, keep allergen management tight, and lock in pricing for the whole academic year.
What we hear
Procurement challenges in schools & education.
- School Food Standards compliance is non-negotiable — most suppliers say they meet it, not all do.
- Allergen risk means switching suppliers mid-year is painful.
- Term-time volumes look small annually but concentrated weekly.
- MATs struggle to consolidate purchasing across a portfolio.
Our approach
How we run a tender for schools & education.
Step 1
Upload invoices
Two or three months of recent invoices give us the full picture — PDF, Excel, CSV or photos.
Step 2
Build the basket
We extract every line, normalise SKUs and roll it up to a full basket view for tender.
Step 3
Tender the market
UK nationals, regional specialists and your incumbents all bid — by category or full basket.
Step 4
Award & lock in
You choose the winning supplier. We lock the contract in on your agreed term — usually 1 to 3 years.
