About
A map for the manufacturer's next market.
Cresques exists for one moment: a manufacturer has a product that sells at home and wants to sell it in France, Germany or Sweden — and does not know who already sells that category there, how to get in, or how to start the conversation lawfully.
- What
- A web application for manufacturers entering a new EU market through distributors.
- Evidence
- Public contract award notices (TED): who won what, for whom, at what value and when.
- Not
- A tender platform. Our users do not bid; awards are evidence of who already sells a category.
- Where
- Built and hosted in the EU. The app and the knowledge hub are in English; the main pages are also in Polish, German, Arabic and Chinese.
- Name
- After Abraham Cresques, the Majorcan cartographer behind the Catalan Atlas (1375). Pronounced KRES-kes.

What we believe
Evidence beats lists. A company that won a public contract for office furniture in Lyon is selling office furniture in France. That is a fact you can check; a bought lead list is not.
The lawful channel first. The same e-mail is routine in France and unlawful in Germany. We tell you the rule before you write, and we never contact anyone on your behalf.
Self-service, honestly priced. You pay with credits for what you unlock, see prices before you pay, and can export or delete your data at any time.
How we work
- We read award notices from TED, keep company-level facts and remove personal data of individuals before anything is stored. Read the methodology.
- Our guides cite the regulator's or the law's own text. They are information, not legal advice. Meet the editorial desk.
- Every number on this site has a source. If you find one without, write to hello@cresques.com.

Why a 650-year-old atlas
In 1375 the Catalan Atlas told merchants not only where the coasts were, but where the trade routes ran and which ports dealt in what. For centuries, anyone entering a foreign market started with a map like it. We make that map for one product category and one country at a time.
