Government tenders in Ethiopia: where they are published.
The national channels in Ethiopia carry a large share of public procurement, but not all of it: 7 state-owned enterprises publish notices on their own sites. In the sectors where those companies buy, energy, transport, utilities, that is where the volume sits.
The national channels
These are the public, national-level sources: anyone can find them in one search. They carry a large share of the notices, not all of them.
And everything that publishes beside them
Beyond the national channels, 13 more sources in Ethiopia publish their own notices. We count them by category without naming them: the complete source map is what sets the radar apart, and it is not published.

- 1public agencies and institutions publishing directly
- 1donor-funded project units publishing their own notices
- 1ministries with their own tender sections
- 1regional, state and municipal buyers with their own portals

State companies are usually the most regular buyers in the country. Following them separately is not a detail: a share of the addressable market never touches the national portal at all.
What TRINTA does on this market
TRINTA reads these sources every day so the company does not have to. The radar is built per client: it starts from the company's real catalogue, builds a multilingual keyword profile, then scores every notice 0 to 100 against what the company actually sells, with the reasoning shown. Procedure documents are retrieved and attached, and a short scored list arrives each morning.
The same radar covers 170+ countries and 1,627 mapped official platforms, plus the multilateral lenders. A company selling in Ethiopia rarely sells only in Ethiopia.
