Why do business with the Council?
The main reasons are:
- We are one of the County’s largest purchasers of goods and services.
- We are a financially stable customer and we pay promptly usually within 30 days.
- We have a legal duty to be fair, honest and professional in our choice and subsequent treatment of our suppliers.
- We promote ethical, environmentally sound and non-discriminatory approaches that benefit the County and those who live and work here.
- Wherever possible we seek innovative solutions to our requirements.
- We want to support local businesses and are keen to promote partnerships where appropriate.
- A supplier’s market credibility is enhanced by being seen to be an “approved Council supplier”.
