Fertilisers and nitrogen compounds market in Romania: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Romania awarded 533 supply contracts for fertilisers and nitrogen compounds through award notices on TED; the 232 of them that state a value (43.5%) add up to €6.66 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Romania imported €1.79 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to fertilisers and nitrogen compounds in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 3808, 3102, 3105, 2814, 3104 and 2 more headings; all buyers, not only public ones), up 11.6% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 80 companies have won 1,553 public supply contracts for fertilisers and nitrogen compounds in Romania, in 126 award notices from 61 public buyers.
  • 99% of these awards went to companies registered in Romania; the most frequent foreign origin is Austria.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 44% of all awards.
  • 13.6% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Romania — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €47.7 billion in 2025, 12.5% 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.
