In this paper, we deal with a vectorial form of Ekeland-type variational principle for multivalued bioperator whose domain is a complete metric space and its range is a subset of a locally convex Hausdorff topological space. From this theorem, Caristi-Kirk fixed point theorem for multivalued maps is established in a more general setting and our techniques allow us to improve and to extend their results in (Ansari in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 335: 561-575, 2007; Bednarczuk and Zagrodny in Arch. Math. 93: 577-586, 2009; Bianchi, Kassay and Pini in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 305: 502-512, 2005).
