Lifting and handling equipment and parts market in Hungary: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Hungary awarded 34 supply contracts for lifting and handling equipment and parts through award notices on TED; the 34 of them that state a value (100%) add up to €5.9 million. Hungary imported €448 million of goods in the customs headings matched to lifting and handling equipment and parts in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8428, 8427, 8426 and 8425; all buyers, not only public ones), down 8.8% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 26 companies have won 63 public supply contracts for lifting and handling equipment and parts in Hungary, in 33 award notices from 26 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Hungary.

  • 6.3% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Hungary — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €30.3 billion in 2025, 13.8% 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.
