Miscellaneous fabricated products and related items market in Ireland: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Ireland awarded 38 supply contracts for miscellaneous fabricated products and related items through award notices on TED; the 8 of them that state a value (21.1%) add up to €2.22 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Ireland imported €395 million of goods in the customs headings matched to miscellaneous fabricated products and related items in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 7326, 8482, 7325, 3922, 6910 and 7324; all buyers, not only public ones), down 6.9% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 55 companies have won 100 public supply contracts for miscellaneous fabricated products and related items in Ireland, in 36 award notices from 33 public buyers.
  • 91% of these awards went to companies registered in Ireland; the most frequent foreign origin is United Kingdom.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 38% of all awards.
  • 15.1% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Ireland — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €50.3 billion in 2025, 8.3% 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.
