The category "Meat and meat products" is included in the TOP-10 of the most profitable areas of earning for suppliers in Prozorro. Every day, government agencies publish tenders from thousands to millions of hryvnia, where they buy a variety of meat products. All such tenders are available on the SmartTender.biz site.
Public purchase of food consists of the following stages:
The customer – a government agency – publishes a purchase announcement in Prozorro, where they indicate what, for how much, and on what conditions they want to purchase.
Interested suppliers send their proposals – the price for which they are ready to sell the specified product.
An auction is underway: for three rounds, all procurement participants compete with each other, gradually reducing their price offers. The winner is the one with the best price.
The bid of the winner of the auction is checked for compliance with the customer's requirements, and then, if all is well, a deal is concluded. Further cooperation takes place by the signed agreement.
If you want to take part in the public procurement Prozorro and receive an order, follow these steps:
