Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

MBABANE – CARE Air-Conditioning (Pty) Ltd has been enlisted as the best evaluated tenderer to be awarded the Eswatini Investment Promotion Authority (EIPA) tender.

EIPA issued a request for proposals (RFP) for the supply and installation of heating ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) and three companies responded. These were Jordan Refrigeration (Pty) Ltd, Usizo Technical Services, and CARE Air-Conditioning. Worth noting, all the companies that showed interest for the tender were local. EIPA intends to award the tender to Care Air, and their total evaluated scores were not revealed. It was noted that Jordan Refrigeration (Pty) Ltd’s evaluated price was E5 161 463.20, while Usizo’s evaluated price was E4 444 986.38.

CARE Air proposed the highest price when compared to the two other companies; they proposed E5 296 604.25, which was E135 141.05 higher.
The above-mentioned was published by the procurement regulating authority, the Eswatini Public Procurement Regulatory Agency (ESPPRA) on their website. The intention to award the company was published yesterday, and if it is not contested, they are expected to begin executing it after 10 working days. As the requesting entity, EIPA was also in charge of the procurement of the tender as well as its approvals. EIPA requested unsuccessful bidders to apply for review with the agency within 10 working days. “All tenderers who submitted bids are hereby notified that a period of 10 working days is hereby allowed for submission of any application for review,” said EIPA.

Facilitated

Worth noting, EIPA and Taiwan Trade (TAITRA) facilitated the participation of Eswatini-based traders in the Giftionery and Culture Creative Show 2023 in Taipei, Taiwan. Eswatini’s participation in this trade show forms part of Eswatini’s efforts to deepen trade relations with Taiwan under the Economic Cooperation Agreement signed in 2018, while also encouraging trade between local companies and highly profitable potential markets in Taiwan.

Companies from Eswatini will be represented by the Eswatini Embassy in Taiwan and TAITRA, as their products will be shipped to and displayed at the Eswatini exhibition stand. EIPA manager of external trade Sibusiso Mnisi said: “We are pleased to once again invite traders to exhibit their products at Giftionery and Culture Creative 2023. This will allow them to diversify their market access and hopefully grow their businesses through enhancing their export trade capability.”

Covid-19

Mnisi said Eswatini has participated before, but due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, traders were represented by Eswatini’s Embassy in Taiwan.
He said this time around they would be able to represent themselves and be in a position to present the products to potential buyers or distributors, undertake market research on key factors, and examine the structure of the creative industries in Taiwan and Asia. These exhibitions have benefited local companies as trade between Eswatini and Taiwan has increased to US$ 2.3 million (about E38 394 069) based on the EIPA 2020 Trade Analysis report and is largely dominated by products in the foods and beverages sector.
