Common questions

Is there enough tender work for general supplies businesses?
52 general supplies tenders are open right now, out of 12 748 on record. Every one of them names its buyer, closing date and what it requires from bidders.
How much does market entry report cost?
R3 500. Researched and delivered within 5 working days, by email with a secure download link. We confirm scope with you before starting.
What makes this different from a business plan?
A business plan assumes you have decided and sets out how you will do it. This is the decision itself: whether the demand is there, who already holds it, what entry costs, and whether the numbers support going at all. Several of these reports end in a recommendation not to enter.
Where does the data come from?
Published South African procurement records (tender notices and award notices), the supplier base registered on Okhantu, and desk research against the specific market you name. Sources are cited in the report so you can check any figure yourself.
Will you tell me not to enter a market?
Yes, where the evidence says so. The recommendation is go, no-go, or go-with-conditions, and the reasoning is shown rather than asserted. A report that always says yes is worth nothing.
How long does it take?
Five working days. We confirm the scope with you before starting, so the report answers the question you actually have rather than the one we assumed.

Have your bid checked before you submit

Most rejected bids never reach the pricing stage — a missing form, an unsigned page, an expired certificate. We check yours page by page against that tender's own requirement list.
