Motor vehicles market in Poland: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Poland awarded 2,157 supply contracts for motor vehicles through award notices on TED; the 2,040 of them that state a value (94.6%) add up to €2.53 billion. Poland imported €21.4 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to motor vehicles in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8703, 8704, 8702 and 8705; all buyers, not only public ones), up 29.5% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 626 companies have won 5,466 public supply contracts for motor vehicles in Poland, in 3,289 award notices from 1,598 public buyers.
  • 98.5% of these awards went to companies registered in Poland; the most frequent foreign origin is Italy.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 20.7% of all awards.
  • 52% 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.

How we count: one award per procedure, lot and winning company, from live contract award notices; a joint procurement counts on every buyer's market. 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.
