Cabinet Member for Resources, Cllr. Alun Lenny said:

Understanding the importance of small and medium sized businesses to our local economy, the County Council encourages local businesses to apply for the opportunity to supply goods, works and services to us. 

Information and advice on how to tender for opportunities with the Council will be readily available at our Procurement & Businesses Surgeries, therefore I urge all SME’s, Third Sector Organisations and Minority Groups to take advantage of this excellent opportunity.”
