The Pearl Yard development in Bermondsey is not only creating jobs and apprenticeships — it is also generating significant supply chain opportunities for local small and medium-sized businesses.
What is Pearl Yard?
In October 2022, Greystar purchased the former Peek Freans Biscuit Factory site and are delivering the long-awaited Pearl Yard Bermondsey. The development includes hundreds of new rental homes alongside commercial and community space.
Supply Chain Commitments
As part of the Section 106 agreement with Southwark Council, the developer and main contractor are required to provide opportunities for local businesses within the supply chain. This includes:
- Procurement packages advertised to local suppliers first
- Meet-the-buyer events connecting local businesses with tier-one contractors
- Support for local businesses to meet pre-qualification requirements
- Regular supply chain engagement sessions throughout the build programme
How to Get Involved
If you run a business in Southwark or the surrounding boroughs, you can register your interest through the Opportunity Platform. We maintain a local supplier directory and work with the main contractor to ensure local businesses are given fair access to procurement opportunities.
Whether you offer construction services, facilities management, catering, security, cleaning, or professional services, there may be opportunities relevant to your business.
