This contract will be awarded in April 2022 for 12 months through a lease agreement and street trading licence however, the contract length is open to negotiation. The cafe will be equipped and furnished as a ready-to-operate unit from June 2022. The aim is to deliver an accessible, affordable food offering to the highest standard. In addition, the dietary offering will minimise foods and packaging with a negative social or environmental impact and should promote nutrition and well-being. The structure will be a non-permanent unit. For example, a mobile cafe that leaves the site between operating hours or a container/unit left on site overnight. This exciting opportunity has arisen because Oxford City Council, in partnership with Tesla, Fastned, and Gamma Energy, will be launching the most prominent public EV charging in the UK at Redbridge P&R in May '22. In total, there will be 42 EV charging bays, 22 of which will belong to Tesla and Fastned and provide 'ultra-rapid' charging, with customers stopping for an average of 15 - 40 minutes whilst their vehicle charges. The customer base for the Café will be; visitors to the Park & Ride & EV Hub, bypassing traffic using the ring road around Oxford and the local population. Through external marketing and PR, there will be an excellent opportunity to attract local people and passing trade with various opening times, utilising the site's central location and parking spaces.
