CAFETERIA / CATERING UNIT AT LATHBURY SPORTS COMPLEX

UNIT A1, 3 BUFFADERO LANE

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST

His Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar (HMGoG) invites expressions of interest from individuals or organisations for the fit out and operation of a cafeteria/catering unit at Lathbury Sports Complex. Applicants are invited to bid the cash premium which they are willing to pay to secure a five-year licence (paying a monthly licence fee to HMGoG) to operate and maintain the cafeteria/catering unit. HMGoG will consider proposals which are compatible with the Lathbury Sports Complex, which is managed by the GSLA. Interested parties will be required to submit plans / details of their proposal and evidence of their financial resources to fit out the unit and to pay the premium sum.

Proposals must take into account planning considerations, which are independent of the grant of the licence over the property. A successful scheme will require the full approval of the Development and Planning Commission and obtain all other relevant licences and permits. The successful applicant will be required to cover all costs for the fit-out works including those of any infrastructure required.

All enquiries to Land Property Services Limited at mail@lps.gi, by phone on (+350) 20040200, or at their offices at the address below. A general plan is available on request and prospective applicants are strongly recommended to obtain a copy. Site visits will be arranged by appointment only and limited to small groups. These will be organised via LPS, which will liaise with the GSLA.

Interested parties should understand that submissions need only be initial expressions of interest but should include basic details of any concepts, preliminary layout plans and sketches. They should also state the premium sum offered if the submission is selected by HMGoG for further negotiation and discussion. HMGoG reserves the right to negotiate the level of premium. A process of consultation and negotiation will follow with parties that submit ideas or concepts that are of interest to HMGoG. Such concepts, ideas or proposals may need to evolve or be adapted as discussions or negotiations move forward. Applicants will also need to submit evidence of their financial resources to undertake the fit-out works and for the payment the premium sum.

Outline layout plans and details should be submitted with letters of interest clearly specifying the name(s) of the individual(s) or organisation(s) together with relevant contact details.  These should be marked “Cafeteria / Catering Unit at Lathbury Sports Complex, Expressions of Interest” and submitted sealed and addressed to HM Government of Gibraltar and deposited in the Expressions of Interest Box (with a USB memory stick inside the envelope) situated at the offices of Land Property Services Limited, 50 Town Range, Gibraltar, not later than noon on Friday 8^th March 2024.  Envelopes will remain sealed until after the closing date. HMGoG reserves the right to reject any or all submissions.
