Harvesting machinery market in Sweden: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Sweden awarded 8 supply contracts for harvesting machinery through award notices on TED; the 2 of them that state a value (25%) add up to €650,624, a floor rather than the full contract value. Sweden imported €466 million of goods in the customs headings matched to harvesting machinery in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8433; all buyers, not only public ones), up 24.3% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 57 companies have won 72 public supply contracts for harvesting machinery in Sweden, in 13 award notices from 11 public buyers.
  • 98.6% of these awards went to companies registered in Sweden; the most frequent foreign origin is Denmark.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 19.4% of all awards.
  • 10.7% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Sweden — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €106 billion in 2025, 17.6% 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.
