Tender Description

Renewal of a national framework for the bulk supply of highway de-icing salt & associated products/services. The framework has a large national customer base and is intended to meet the requirements of local authorities, relevant highways organisations and other eligible customers.

Lot 2 - Supply & delivery of bulk 6mm white marine salt

ESPO shall monitor the financial stability of the awarded suppliers during the framework period by reference to credit rating agency reports.
