Supply and delivery of promotional materials under a three-year contract, classified under clothing, textiles and footwear. The attached specification document could not be extracted, so item details and quantities must be verified before bidding.
This tender, reference SCMU15-26/27-004, is issued by the Eastern Cape Department of Community Safety (Safety and Liaison) for the supply and delivery of promotional material over a three-year period. It is classified under Clothing, Textiles and Footwear, which suggests the requirement centres on branded apparel or textile-based promotional items. Typical items in this category include branded T-shirts, golf shirts, caps, jackets, bags and similar merchandise used for departmental campaigns, community outreach and events. The tender was published on 6 November 2026 and closes on 30 November 2026. The status is listed as draft, so bidders should confirm that the tender is open and active on eTenders before preparing a submission.
The primary supporting document, titled 'Promotional Material', could not be read in this analysis, so the exact item list, specifications, quantities, branding requirements, colour and size specifications, sample requirements and delivery schedules are not confirmed here. Prospective bidders should download and review this document in full, as it will govern the technical requirements and evaluation criteria. Standard South African public procurement requirements typically apply to tenders of this kind, including valid Central Supplier Database (CSD) registration, tax compliance status, a valid B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit, and compliance with the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act. Bidders should confirm all mandatory returnable documents, pricing format, and any pre-qualification or sample-submission requirements in the bid document.
For suppliers, this contract offers a multi-year revenue opportunity with a government department, which can provide stability for manufacturers, printers and distributors. A three-year term also means that suppliers who meet the requirements can build a long-term relationship with the department. Because the requirement is for both supply and delivery, bidders should consider their logistics capacity, particularly for delivery to Eastern Cape offices and events. Bidders should also assess whether they can meet quality, branding and turnaround expectations consistently over the full contract period.
This tender is suitable for CSD-registered suppliers of promotional merchandise, including branded apparel manufacturers, textile and garment producers, screen printers, embroiderers, promotional product distributors, and suppliers able to deliver customised clothing and accessories. Businesses based in the Eastern Cape, or with the capacity to deliver there, are well placed to respond. Suppliers with B-BBEE recognition, and those qualifying as youth-, women- or disability-owned enterprises or as SMMEs, may benefit from preferential procurement points, subject to the bid document. Businesses without apparel or merchandise production capability, or without the ability to meet a three-year delivery commitment, should assess their fit carefully before bidding.
