Tender Opportunities

Swedish companies can make a substantial contribution to Ukraine's reconstruction through participation in international and local tenders

In 2023, the European Union and over 20 individual countries offer financial support to Ukraine, including donor funding for IFIs and UN agencies procuring works, goods, and services to address immediate needs and reconstruction via their respective procurement platforms.
With the direct aid to Ukraine's budget exceeding USD 38 bln in 2023, Ukrainian government entities and state-owned enterprises conduct numerous reconstruction-related tenders via the public electronic procurement system Prozorro.
As both international and local tenders are open to international participation, Swedish companies can contribute to the rebuilding of Ukraine by providing sustainable solutions, technology, or participating in projects through respective procurement opportunities.
