Computer equipment and supplies market in Belgium: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Belgium awarded 126 supply contracts for computer equipment and supplies through award notices on TED; the 76 of them that state a value (60.3%) add up to €175 million. Belgium imported €4.5 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to computer equipment and supplies in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8471 and 8473; all buyers, not only public ones), up 12.9% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 162 companies have won 400 public supply contracts for computer equipment and supplies in Belgium, in 207 award notices from 118 public buyers.
  • 89% of these awards went to companies registered in Belgium; the most frequent foreign origin is Germany.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 23.3% of all awards.
  • 18.9% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Belgium — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €99.6 billion in 2025, 15.5% of GDP (Eurostat). Award notices on TED cover only the contracts above the EU thresholds, so they show who wins, not the whole of that spending.

Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
