Government Clothing Tenders
Nowadays, it would seem that more suppliers are looking to take better advantage of the increasingly competitive government procurement system as part of their business development strategy.
For many businesses, procurement opportunities allow them the ability to increase their market share, and partner with public enterprises, and for smaller entities it allows them to collaborate with larger, and more established corporations.
With such a vast array of new possibilities, clothing and textile suppliers are looking at ways in which they can tap into the market, and find sufficient resources to help them streamline the process of applying and bidding for government tenders and public sector clothing contracts.

Bidding For UK Government Clothing Tenders
The procurement opportunities for clothing and textile suppliers are multi-faceted, considering the various types of textile and clothing tenders that are made available each year.
There is a wide variety of different categories for suppliers, with some including Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), healthcare sector uniforms, military clothing, corporate workwear, police uniforms, fire and flame-resistant uniforms, construction overalls, chef’s uniforms and maintenance overalls.
