## About this tender

The Ministry of Justice requires a Contractor to provide the supply of Fresh Bread and Morning Goods to all public sector and in-scope private sector prisons in England and Wales.

The Contractor must be able to provide a core range of bread products and have the ability to deliver products on a national basis. Products must also comply with all relevant food safety legislation.

The number and location of prisons to which the Contractor shall be required to deliver may change to include additional prison sites as a result of the closure of some existing facilities and opening of new facilities.
