    Brief

    ESPO, a non-profit trading department of Leicestershire County Council operated jointly by six local authorities, is conducting preliminary market engagement to establish a framework for supplying cleaning chemicals and hand soaps. ESPO maintains a catalogue of over 28,000 products serving education and public sector customers. Products will be purchased for resale, with orders placed according to customer demand. Delivery will typically be to ESPO's Leicester distribution centre, with some orders delivered directly to customers across the UK. The proposed framework will include four lots: Lot 1 - Premium/Branded Cleaning Chemicals; Lot 2 - Premium/Branded Hand Soaps and Sanitisers; Lot 3 - Economy Cleaning Chemicals; and Lot 4 - ESPO Own-Brand Smartbuy Cleaning Chemicals and Hand Soaps. This pre-market engagement phase seeks input from capable suppliers with relevant experience to help define framework requirements. This is not a formal tender or competition; tender documentation is not yet available. Interested suppliers are invited to provide information about their capabilities, track record, and capacity to deliver products in this category.
