Troy encouraging local businesses to register for procurement Expo

Minister of State and local Fianna Fáil TD Robert Troy is encouraging local businesses to register for the Government Supply Expo 2025, an all-island procurement event taking place in the Aviva Stadium on November 11.

Organised by the Office of Government Procurement (OGP) and InterTradeIreland, the Expo will be a unique opportunity for Irish businesses, particularly SMEs, micro and social enterprises to network, build collaborations and scope out upcoming procurement opportunities.

There will also be an opportunity to learn about the tendering process, with expert-led sessions on the areas of green and sustainable public procurement, innovation, tendering tips and the supports and resources available to suppliers, including InterTrade Ireland’s Go-2-Tender programme.

This event is free of charge and open to all businesses and suppliers across the island, as well as all public sector buyers. The event supports all-island trade, helping suppliers from both jurisdictions understand how to navigate cross-border procurement and tap into InterTradeIreland’s highly regarded supports for all-island growth.

“Government is actively seeking to help SMEs and indigenous companies to grow their businesses and selling to Government is a fantastic way to achieve this.

"Attending the Government Supply Expo 2025 would be a great first step for any local SME, micro enterprise or social enterprise looking to expand and I encourage anyone who is interested in selling to government to attend," Minister Troy said.
