Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Netherlands awarded 51 supply contracts for television and radio receivers, and sound or video recording or reproducing apparatus through award notices on TED; the 19 of them that state a value (37.3%) add up to €47.4 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Netherlands imported €8.86 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to television and radio receivers, and sound or video recording or reproducing apparatus in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8528, 8518, 8519, 8527, 8521 and 8522; all buyers, not only public ones), up 17.1% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 60 companies have won 142 public supply contracts for television and radio receivers, and sound or video recording or reproducing apparatus in Netherlands, in 134 award notices from 115 public buyers.
  • 97.9% of these awards went to companies registered in Netherlands; the most frequent foreign origin is United Kingdom.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 27.5% of all awards.
  • 16.2% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Netherlands — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €242 billion in 2025, 20.7% 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.
