TEAM & VISION

Many hearts, one beat.

GoTender is built by BOT Blue Ocean Technologies GmbH in Cologne, by a team that loves procurement, the food industry and great software.

Why GoTender exists

For decades, tendering in the food industry has worked the same way: scattered emails, ever-growing spreadsheets and offers that simply cannot be compared.

We built GoTender to change exactly that. One platform where buyers and suppliers find each other, negotiate and collaborate. Structured, transparent and fair for both sides.

Today we combine an advanced supplier search with an easy-to-use, state-of-the-art tender software. And there is much more to come: we plan to cover every occasion in which suppliers and buyers interact.

The people behind GoTender.

A small team in Cologne, somewhere between procurement, food and software. Plus one office dog.

Miriam Fiquet

CEO & Co-Founder

Managing director of Foodsource Consulting, a foodservice consultancy for procurement and logistics. She knows the problem GoTender solves first hand.

Eric Gliemmo

CEO & Co-Founder

Built the organizational and technical foundation of GoTender, from IT leadership through day-to-day operations and support to strategy, planning and funding rounds.

Daniel Gliemmo

Product Solutions Engineer

Translates between the buying desk and the codebase. Turns what customers describe in a call into something that actually works in the platform.

Fabian Weinland

Senior Software Engineer

Builds the engine behind the tenders. When a set of offers is comparable in seconds instead of days, that is his work.

Polly

Office Dog

In charge of breaks, keeping everyone grounded and good spirits, even on days when a release wobbles.

VISION

Empowering the global food industry by connecting buyers and suppliers and revolutionizing the way they connect, collaborate and thrive.

For the start we provide an advanced search combined with a state-of-the-art, easy-to-use tender software. But there is so much more to come as we plan to cover each occasion in which suppliers and buyers interact with each other.
