Textile articles market in Romania: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Romania awarded 341 supply contracts for textile articles through award notices on TED; the 130 of them that state a value (38.1%) add up to €19.6 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Romania imported €660 million of goods in the customs headings matched to textile articles in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 6302, 6307, 5703, 6306, 5911 and 12 more headings; all buyers, not only public ones), up 5.6% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 179 companies have won 1,803 public supply contracts for textile articles in Romania, in 223 award notices from 131 public buyers.
  • 99.9% of these awards went to companies registered in Romania; the most frequent foreign origin is Austria.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 35.3% of all awards.
  • 17.7% 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.
