Tender Overview
The Directorate Of Social Welfare Kashmir invites bids for a 37-item grocery supply under the Social Welfare Department, located in Kupwara, Jammu & Kashmir 193221. The procurement covers a broad category of staples and perishables including rice, pulses, spices, oil, dairy, vegetables, eggs, bread, fruit, meat, and beverages. The tender references an advance sample approval process and a flexible quantity clause, without disclosure of the estimated value or EMD. The BOQ items span essential household provisions, with a focus on standard retail-grade products.
