The deal is valued at £12m over the two years.
Speedy will supply all of Tesco's supply chain contractors in the UK and Ireland working on its refurbishment and build programmes throughout 2011 and 2012. The agreement includes small tools, building equipment, general plant and powered access.
Tesco contractors will have a dedicated hire desk at Speedy and access to Speedy's extranet system to manage their needs online.
Tesco has also awarded Speedy its “Platinum supplier” status, placing the support services business among its leading contractors.
Tesco buying manager for construction Vijay Vekria said: "We wanted a partner that understood and could support the different phases of our new build and maintenance programme by providing advice, the highest quality equipment and all on a national basis. Speedy was appointed because they met these needs with their impressive experience supporting major projects."
