Challenges
• Supplier partners • Adding Products to contract frameworks as “core”
items • Initial probing with Suppliers sourcing products • Baked Beans !! Favourite product with children but
assessment requires us to make our own “cowboy style” “ we are still awaiting the job description for a cowboy cook”
