Electronic, electromechanical and electrotechnical supplies market in France: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in France awarded 131 supply contracts for electronic, electromechanical and electrotechnical supplies through award notices on TED; the 54 of them that state a value (41.2%) add up to €18.5 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. France imported €5.84 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to electronic, electromechanical and electrotechnical supplies in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8542, 8541, 8534, 8532 and 8533; all buyers, not only public ones), down 27.5% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 192 companies have won 299 public supply contracts for electronic, electromechanical and electrotechnical supplies in France, in 202 award notices from 86 public buyers.
  • 78.6% of these awards went to companies registered in France; the most frequent foreign origin is Germany.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 14.7% of all awards.
  • 45% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in France — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €486 billion in 2025, 16.2% 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.

How we count: one award per procedure, lot and winning company, from live contract award notices; a joint procurement counts on every buyer's market.

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