Questions

About catering tenders

How many catering tenders are open right now?

39 on 18 October 2026, from 15 public buyers on National Treasury's eTenders portal. 23 of them close within 7 days and 2 have a compulsory briefing session.

Which buyer advertises the most catering tenders?

City of Cape Town, with 15 open on 18 October 2026, followed by Free State - Social Development (10) and KZN Growth Fund Trust (2).

Are these all the tenders?

They are every matching tender on eTenders, where national and provincial government, state-owned companies and municipalities advertise. Municipalities also advertise smaller quotations (above R30,000) on their own websites and notice boards for at least seven days; Awardee is adding those sources buyer by buyer.

Can small businesses bid for catering tenders?

Yes. 23 of these are requests for quotation, the smaller jobs where buyers ask for written price quotes instead of a full tender. You need to be registered on the Central Supplier Database (CSD) and tax compliant.
