Framework agreement for the supply of kitchen inventory to schools in Duisburg

Summary

The City of Duisburg is procuring kitchen inventory for school canteens and serving kitchens, together with related advice, quotation preparation, transport and delivery to the place of use. The procurement covers cutlery, crockery, glassware and jugs, cooking and kitchen utensils, commercial dishwasher baskets, storage and transport equipment, insulated serving bowls, waste-handling items, and cleaning and hygiene supplies. Bidders must offer every item in the price schedule and include technical product data sheets. The initial contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2027, with three unilateral 12-month extension options, up to 31 December 2030.
