SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
A government authority in Apopka, Florida is seeking a concessionaire to provide concession operations and related services at a public recreation facility. The selected vendor will be expected to offer a menu with a variety of reasonably priced food and beverage options suitable for families, youth athletes, spectators, and park visitors. The city will provide event and tournament schedules, blackout dates, and anticipated attendance when available.
The concessionaire will be responsible for supplying all staffing needed to operate the concession efficiently and safely. Staff must be professional, courteous, properly trained, and appropriately dressed. The selected firm must also obtain and maintain all required licenses, permits, approvals, and inspections, and comply with all applicable food safety, health, and sanitation standards.
Additional responsibilities include maintaining cleanliness in the concession area and surrounding customer service areas during and after operations, and delivering prompt, courteous, and professional service at all times. The city will provide access to available utilities such as electricity and water, if available, and reserves the right to review menu pricing to ensure it remains reasonable for a public recreation facility. Recreation programs, games, tournaments, and events may be canceled or rescheduled due to weather, field conditions, emergencies, maintenance, or other city decisions.
A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for July 31, 2026, and all questions must be submitted by August 7, 2026. The contract term will be one year.
