Register as a Supplier

To ensure all prospective suppliers of goods and services are afforded a 'fair, transparent and equitable' process in applying for business opportunities, the City has set up a single supplier database.   As a  municipal-owned entity (MOE), Johannesburg Tourism also subscribes to this policy.

To ensure all prospective suppliers of goods and services are afforded a "fair, transparent and equitable" process in applying for business opportunities,  JTC has set up a single supplier database. current and prospective suppliers should apply to be accredited and registered on the database.

According to the Municipal Finance Management Act of 2003, the City of Johannesburg and its agencies are required to create and maintain a "credible and accredited" supplier database of prospective providers of goods and services. The Act makes it obligatory that the City utilises only accredited suppliers registered on the database when acquiring and procuring different goods and services.

"The City will not do business with suppliers that are not accredited and registered on the database, and do not have a valid City of Johannesburg/JTC Vendor number.

Tenders, however, will still be advertised in the public media. Prospective suppliers have to meet certain criteria to be accredited.  For a company to qualify for accreditation, it has to be duly registered and must comply with the applicable legislation.

All application forms should be accompanied by a latest municipal rates and taxes statement and valid tax clearance. If the company's municipal account is in arrears and tax status not in order, they won't be accredited. All required information is spelled out in the application form.

The BEE status of a company must also be specified.  However, this does not mean non-BEE complying companies need not apply. Other requirements that must be included in the application include trade experience and the financial capacity of the company. Start-up companies without any trade experience or financial history may also apply.
