About tenders in the Eastern Cape

The Eastern Cape's provincial government is based in Bhisho, and its economy centres on the automotive cluster around Gqeberha and East London, the Coega Special Economic Zone, the East London Industrial Development Zone and agriculture. Large rural areas mean many tenders cover roads, water, sanitation, and school and clinic infrastructure.

Who issues tenders in the Eastern Cape?

Tenders here are published by the Nelson Mandela Bay and Buffalo City metropolitan municipalities, the Alfred Nzo, Amathole, Chris Hani, Joe Gqabi, OR Tambo and Sarah Baartman district municipalities, and Eastern Cape provincial departments, as well as state-owned entities and private companies operating in the province.

Main towns and cities

Larger buying centres include Gqeberha, East London, Mthatha, Queenstown and Kariega. The provincial capital is Bhisho.
