Personal care products market in Spain: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Spain awarded 452 supply contracts for personal care products through award notices on TED; the 344 of them that state a value (76.1%) add up to €46.3 million. Spain imported €6.09 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to personal care products in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 3304, 3303, 3305, 4818, 3307 and 8 more headings; all buyers, not only public ones), up 17.7% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 410 companies have won 1,309 public supply contracts for personal care products in Spain, in 385 award notices from 190 public buyers.
  • 99.8% of these awards went to companies registered in Spain; the most frequent foreign origin is Germany.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 16.3% of all awards.
  • 19.1% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Spain — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €192 billion in 2025, 11.3% 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.

General government spending on goods, services and investment for health in Spain came to €54.7 billion in 2024 (Eurostat, COFOG). How much of it reaches suppliers through tenders depends on how the country organises the sector — for example whether statutory health insurance is classified in government.

Values are the awarded amounts published in the notice (framework ceilings and estimates are never added), converted to euro at the ECB yearly average. Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
