FAQ

Catering tenders, answered

Where can I find food & catering tenders?

Food & Catering tenders are published across national procurement portals and, in the EU, on TED. qlows aggregates live catering notices from 35 WTO-GPA markets and matches them to your catalog, so you see the relevant ones in one place instead of watching each portal.

Can foreign companies bid on catering tenders?

Yes. Under the WTO Government Procurement Agreement, a supplier in one member market can bid on food & catering tenders in the others on equal terms above each market's value threshold — no local-presence requirement.

How many catering tenders are live right now?

qlows tracks live catering tenders across the WTO-GPA markets; the count changes daily as new notices are published and deadlines pass.
