Sports goods and equipment market in Greece: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Greece awarded 8 supply contracts for sports goods and equipment through award notices on TED; the 8 of them that state a value (100%) add up to €2.15 million. Greece imported €115 million of goods in the customs headings matched to sports goods and equipment in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 9506; all buyers, not only public ones), down 1.2% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 31 companies have won 36 public supply contracts for sports goods and equipment in Greece, in 34 award notices from 27 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Greece.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Greece — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €32.5 billion in 2025, 13% 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.
