More than 14 million ‘best of British' meals will be served during the Olympic and Paralympic Games, across 40 different locations.
Locog is also responsible for feeding15,000 athletes during the event, which is expected to require in excess of 25,000 loaves of bread, 232 tonnes of potatoes and 75,000 litres of milk.
Opportunities exist for suppliers of all sizes and from all locations and contracts will be advertised via , the London 2012 business portal.
"Catering for the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games is a monumental task," said London 2012 CEO Paul Deighton.
"We want athletes and spectators to have the widest choices of food available and we want that food, wherever possible, to be British."
Next year, Locog will launch a Food Charter to encourage organisations throughout the events, catering and hospitality sectors to commit to supporting and implementing local, seasonal, healthier and sustainable standards across the industry.
