Dairy products market in Poland: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Poland awarded 255 supply contracts for dairy products through award notices on TED; the 255 of them that state a value (100%) add up to €83 million. Poland imported €1.86 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to dairy products in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 0406, 0401, 0405, 0402, 2105 and 2 more headings; all buyers, not only public ones), up 16.1% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 121 companies have won 723 public supply contracts for dairy products in Poland, in 430 award notices from 202 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Poland.

  • 28.1% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

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.
