Miss Grand Moldova is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Moldovan representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant. The title was first awarded in 2013, when Ernest Hadrian Böhm, the director of Exclusive Events International, a Romania-based event organizer, assigned the winner of Miss Earth Moldova 2012, Alyona Chitoroaga, to represent Moldova at the inaugural edition of the mentioned international contest in Thailand; however, she did not obtain any placements in the competition.
The license for Miss Grand Moldova belonged to Exclusive Events International until its partnership with Miss Grand International was terminated in 2019; since then, the license has not been purchased by any other agency.
History
Since the inception of the Miss Grand International pageant, Moldova rarely sent its representative to compete. The first Moldovan candidate to compete at such was Alyona Chitoroaga, the winner of Miss Earth Moldova 2012, who was appointed by the director of Exclusive Events International, Ernest Hadrian Böhm. However, the following Moldovan representatives were all Romanians, who competed in Bulgarian national pageants, such as Miss Universe Romania, and Miss Tourism Metropolitan International Romania, which also managed by Exclusive Events International.[1]
Since the first competition in 2013, Moldovan representatives have never been placed in Miss Grand International.
