Food, beverages, tobacco and related products market in Poland: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Poland awarded 386 supply contracts for food, beverages, tobacco and related products through award notices on TED; the 385 of them that state a value (99.7%) add up to €38.9 million.

  • Since November 2023, 264 companies have won 1,024 public supply contracts for food, beverages, tobacco and related products in Poland, in 275 award notices from 87 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Poland.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Poland — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €133 billion in 2025, 14.4% 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.

Values are the awarded amounts published in the notice (framework ceilings and estimates are never added), converted to euro at the ECB yearly average. Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
