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

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Netherlands awarded 25 supply contracts for domestic appliances through award notices on TED; the 8 of them that state a value (32%) add up to €10.5 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Netherlands imported €6.51 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 39.3% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 49 companies have won 70 public supply contracts for domestic appliances in Netherlands, in 57 award notices from 50 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Netherlands.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 28.6% of all awards.
  • 15.7% 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.
