Genedrive Shares Rise On Successful Tender for Framework Contract

Genedrive (LON: GDR) said it has been successful with its tender into Public Health England (PHE) under Lot 1 of the National Microbiology Framework.

The PHE tender sought to appoint suppliers to a multi-lot national microbiology framework agreement relating to the supply of Diagnostics Goods and Services and covering Clinical Laboratory Diagnostic Testing Services.

The AIM-listed company said the framework contract is not exclusive to them or a guarantee of orders, but it allows participating authorities to issue call-off orders for products in the future.
