GSP1269 - Provision of Chocolates (House of Lords)

The Authority is seeking to appoint between 1-2 suppliers to provide a variety of Chocolates for sale within its retail and catering outlets. The House of Lords represents a unique opportunity for brand owners to place their products in front of high-profile members of the House of Lords, their guests, visitors and approximately 3500 staff who are regular customers of the retail outlets. We recognise that Chocolates are popular at different levels: as impulse buys, self-purchase, as souvenirs, and as luxury gifts. Members like to purchase chocolates as gifts and they are frequently used in banqueting in goodie bags or table gifts. The House of Lords has one retail gift shop on the estate and also offers a small selection of goods in some of our catering outlets. Our goods are also supplied to the House of Commons retail outlets and the online shop.
