managing purchases.
02 Can Slovenian and African businesses explore procurement relationships?
Businesses may explore
international sourcing
and supply relationships
where their capabilities

commercial agreements
and the parties involved.
03 Does the Council issue or award public tenders?
This website does not

Any public tender should
be verified directly

Requirements depend on
the issuer and the specific
procurement process.
They may include business
registration documents,

or product certifications.
Suppliers should follow
the official instructions
for each opportunity.
05 Are opportunities published on this page guaranteed contracts?

supplier enquiries
and sourcing opportunities
do not guarantee

review eligibility,
assess the commercial risks
and follow official procedures.

Businesses can contact
the Council with information
about their products,
services, sourcing interests,

of the proposed cooperation.
