Suomen elintarvikevientiyhdistys ry (the Finnish Food Export Association, SUVI) is procuring a professional service to support the market establishment of Finnish food export companies in Sweden. The service covers both the retail and foodservice channels, and the service provider acts as a local "door opener" for the companies: it creates export-readiness criteria and selects companies on that basis, provides market knowledge, opens contacts and builds a network, prepares buyer meetings, and supports companies in finding the right channel and partners. The project is non-commercial and publicly funded, so the service does not include sales or marketing on behalf of companies and does not highlight individual brands, companies or product origin. The aim is a permanent operating model that can be continued after the project ends. The contract period is 12 months (estimated start 1 September 2026), with a maximum budget of EUR 210,840 including VAT at 25.5%. The procurement is conducted through an open procedure, and the award criterion is the most economically advantageous tender.

The procurement is carried out using an open procedure. A contract notice is published, and the tender documents are made openly available to all. Any interested supplier may submit a tender. The number of tenderers is not limited, and the procedure does not include a separate stage for requests to participate. Tenders that meet the minimum requirements set for the tenderer's eligibility and the content of the tender are included in the comparison of tenders. The procurement decision is made in accordance with the comparison criteria in order to select the most economically advantageous tender.

The place of performance is mainly Sweden, where the service provider operates locally. Communication with the contracting entity and Finnish companies takes place through suitable means, such as remote meetings. — anyw-cou
