The Hinkley
Supply Chain
The Hinkley Supply Chain is here to help businesses win work at Hinkley Point C – and enable existing contractors to find high-quality, local and regional suppliers.
How we work
The Hinkley Supply Chain Team has been commissioned by EDF to manage the Hinkley supply chain.
Our dedicated team has been working in partnership with EDF since 2010 to maximise the opportunities for businesses in Somerset, the South West and South Wales.
Local investment
EDF has already invested more than £3.2 billion with South West businesses and is working with Somerset Chamber of Commerce, which delivers the Hinkley Supply Chain, to ensure it is as easy and straightforward as possible for businesses to find out about and apply for supplier opportunities.
Our team can provide advice and support for businesses interested in registering on the dedicated portal. Once registered, the team can then match businesses with contract opportunities at site and help existing HPC contractors find the suppliers they need.
