Public Procurement in Canada

The Canadian government is one of the largest purchasers of goods and services in Canada. Chapter 14 of the Peru-Canada Free Trade Agreement, contemplates the participation of Peruvian companies in Canadian public procurements.

The main objective of this seminar was to familiarize Peruvian entrepreneurs based in Canada with the public procurement process (BIDS) at the federal level. Attendees received a User Manual prepared by PROMPERU and will now be able to serve as a link with Peruvian exporters to offer Peruvian goods and services to Canadian public entities.
