This is a Rs. 52.8 million annual food supply contract for a government police training institution in Larkana. Bidders must hold FBR and SRB registration plus a Food Control Authority certificate—this is essential compliance in Pakistan's food procurement. The three-year order history requirement and Rs. 10 million turnover threshold indicate the procuring agency expects established catering suppliers. The August 2026 closing date suggests ample lead time for compliance documentation. This appears to be a recurring annual contract typical of institutional feeding operations. Competition is likely from regional catering firms already registered with revenue authorities.

Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid Food Supplier Certificate from Food Control Authority, FBR sales tax registration, and Sindh Revenue Board income tax registration. Minimum three work orders of similar nature in last three years and minimum annual turnover of Rs. 10 million (M) required. Two percent bid security mandatory.
