Domestic appliances market in Italy: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Italy awarded 44 supply contracts for domestic appliances through award notices on TED; the 44 of them that state a value (100%) add up to €25.3 million. Italy imported €3.96 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to domestic appliances in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8516, 8508, 8509, 8450 and 7321; all buyers, not only public ones), up 4.2% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 42 companies have won 99 public supply contracts for domestic appliances in Italy, in 36 award notices from 33 public buyers.
  • 93.9% of these awards went to companies registered in Italy; the most frequent foreign origin is Spain.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Italy — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €274 billion in 2025, 12.1% 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.
