Join us for Meet the Buyer 2025, Scotland’s largest free procurement event!
Now in its 16th year, Scotland’s National Meet the Buyer event will take place on Wednesday 4 June 2025, from 9:30am to 3:30pm. This free event is hosted by the Supplier Development Programme, and partnered by Scottish Government.
Come along to meet procurement teams, buyers and supply chain partners. Meet the Buyer is the place to discuss projects and tender opportunities, on a local and national scale, across Scotland and the UK.
What is Meet the Buyer?
This free to visit event gives you access to buyers and decision makers, from organisations across the public and private sectors. You’ll have the chance to introduce your company, talk to key buyer contacts, and discover opportunities in their pipelines.
Whether you are a micro, small or medium sized supplier, Meet the Buyer National can help you get into public sector supply chains. You will meet buyers connected to public sector projects, who are looking for suppliers that enrich local economies and support Community Wealth Building.
Who should attend Meet the Buyer National?
Meet the Buyer National is aimed towards helping Small Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) from across Scotland meet buyers. However, all are welcome! Wherever you are based, and however big your business is, there is something useful to be found here!
Not sure if your business’ products and services have a place in public and private sector procurement? You may be able to provide peripheral products and services nearby - for example, MOTs, food and drink, cleaning services, security services, local B&Bs, grounds maintenance.
You can’t afford to miss out on the chance to hear about upcoming projects and contracts.
You’ll only know if you go...
Attendance is key. If you don’t sign up for this free event in advance, you will miss out on the opportunity to introduce your business to Scottish local authorities, framework providers, and big contractors.
If your business can attend just one event this year, make it Meet the Buyer 2025!
All suppliers are eligible to attend for free. However, you must register an account with SDP to book a place.

Top Tip: This event is expected to be very busy. Peak times are in the morning, and there will be queues at each exhibition stand. Suppliers are asked to consider attending in the afternoon to avoid the largest crowds.
