Meet the Buyer North set to return for 2026!

Meet the Buyer North is once again set to bring businesses together for the largest free procurement event in the North of Scotland.

The Supplier Development Programme will host the ninth annual Meet the Buyer North event on Thursday 3 September 2026, at The Music Hall, in Aberdeen.

Partnered by the Scottish Government, this free networking event allows businesses to connect with key public sector buyers and decision-makers. Attendees will have the opportunity to speak directly with the buyers on the exhibition stands to learn about upcoming contracts and opportunities in the North of Scotland.

In addition to engaging with buyers, attendees on the day will also have the chance to learn about the business support available, to help them expand their skills, grow their business and improve their chances of winning work.

On the day, suppliers will have the opportunity to listen to presentations and workshops delivered by a range of procurement professionals and buyers.
