What SupplaZM Does

Zambia's procurement gap is real. SupplaZM closes it.

Compliance and Trust

Designed for Zambia's regulatory reality

SupplaZM is built around the documents and standards that Zambian procurement actually requires — not adapted from a foreign platform.

SI 68 Local Content

Zambia's Statutory Instrument 68 mandates local supplier participation in major procurement. SupplaZM is built to make that compliance straightforward — for both buyers reporting spend and suppliers demonstrating eligibility.

PACRA Registration

The Patents and Companies Registration Agency (PACRA) certificate is Zambia's proof of lawful business registration. SupplaZM verifies and displays this on every supplier profile.

ZRA Tax Clearance

The Zambia Revenue Authority tax clearance certificate confirms a supplier is current with their tax obligations — a prerequisite for most corporate and government procurement. Displayed and date-stamped on each profile.

Sector Licences and Certifications

Suppliers in regulated sectors — healthcare, food, mining services — can upload and verify sector-specific licences. Buyers filter by certified suppliers when statutory compliance requires it.

Verified Supplier Status

The SupplaZM Verified badge tells procurement officers this supplier has been through document review — not just a self-registered listing. It is what separates SupplaZM from a generic business directory.
