Villanueva del Fresno puts four stalls in the municipal food market up for tender

The City Council of Villanueva del Fresno has opened the bidding process for the administrative concession for the private use of stalls number 1, 2, 5, and 6 of the municipal food market. The file and the administrative clauses specifications were approved by Mayoral resolution on November 6, 2026, and the announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Badajoz number 217, corresponding to Thursday, November 12, 2026, under reference Announcement 4491/2026.

A municipal property from 1960 on San Ginés Street

The call for bids affects a local public domain asset: the municipal food market, located at number 19 San Ginés Street, in the town of Badajoz. The property has the cadastral reference 9091144PC5499S0001JE, is intended for commercial use, and its construction date is 1960. The specific purpose of each stall is not determined in the specifications, meaning the activity or service to be provided is not imposed by the City Council.

The area of each stall is detailed in Annex III of the specifications, and the announcement already provides the starting dimensions:

• Stall no. 1: 12.70 square meters plus an additional 4.40 square meters.
• Stall no. 2: 11.70 square meters.
• Stall no. 5: 11.60 square meters.
• Stall no. 6: 11.60 square meters.

Annual fee from 720 to 840 euros

The type of bidding sets the minimum amounts that the applicants’ economic offers must exceed. Stall number 1 starts with an annual fee of 840 euros, equivalent to 70 euros per month, while stalls 2, 5, and 6 start at 720 euros per year, that is, 60 euros per month in each case.

The procedure is a public tender under a competitive regime in which the sole award criterion is the highest fee offered. The award will be made separately for each stall, and each bidder may apply for several of them provided they submit separate offers for each. The final guarantee applicable will be that established in clause 16 and in Annex III of the administrative clauses specifications.

File consultation and opening of offers

Interested parties may obtain documentation and information at the City Council of Villanueva del Fresno, Plaza de España number 1, postal code 06110, by telephone at 924427000, and at the municipal electronic office (villanuevadelfresno.sedelectronica.es). Proposals shall be submitted in the form and by the means provided for in clause 10 of the specifications, and the offer model is likewise included in the administrative clauses specifications.

The tender board will be constituted on the first business day following the conclusion of the deadline set for the submission of proposals, in order to open Envelope A of administrative documentation. The opening act of Envelope B, which contains the economic offer, will be public and will be announced on the City Council’s website. The announcement appears digitally signed by the Mayor-President, Ramón Díaz Farias.

The market launch of these four stalls opens the door to local merchants and entrepreneurs who wish to establish themselves in a municipal facility with a long tradition in the municipality, with a moderate initial investment in the form of a fee and the possibility of applying for more than one concession with independent offers. The highest fee offered as the sole criterion leaves the result in the hands of the bidders’ economic capacity, without technical or project evaluations.
