Beijing 2022 organisers have opened the bidding process for companies to become official suppliers in several categories.

Organisers have invited suppliers specialising in paint, brand design and packaged snacks to be become either Official Exclusive Supplier and Official Supplier.

Those relationships are third and fourth respectively in the partnership tiering, coming after Official Partner and Official Sponsor.

Packaged snacks can only be "baked bread, dried fruits and snacks based on potato, rice, wheat and corn" and a letter of intent must be sent to the Organising Committee by April 24.

The deadline for the brand-design services is April 17, with the paint supplier deadline being 10 days later on April 27.

Successful proposals must come from "a good social image, business reputation and performance" and companies must be financially stable.

A qualification of the intended enterprise must exist as well to prove the legitimacy of the business.

The Beijing 2022 Organising Committee will carry out follow-up solicitation to ensure these standards are met by applicants.
