Published requirement descriptionMultiple Retail Workshops geographically located across England and Wales providing a distribution service to the Prison Estate in England and Wales.
HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) Prison Retail Service provides approximately 80,000 prisoners with the means to order goods (fresh and frozen food, ambient food and non-foods e.g. toiletries) using their own funds.
The contract is a key operational service in maintaining a stable environment and supports the HMPPS decency agenda, which focuses on normalising aspects of prison life to prepare eligible prisoners for release.
The current solution is provided as part of a nationally managed service providing wholesale goods, logistics/fleet, rehabilitation of prisoners and the management of multiple workshops.
