Lighting equipment and electric lamps market in Sweden: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Sweden awarded 35 supply contracts for lighting equipment and electric lamps through award notices on TED; the 10 of them that state a value (28.6%) add up to €79.5 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Sweden imported €752 million of goods in the customs headings matched to lighting equipment and electric lamps in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 9405 and 8539; all buyers, not only public ones), up 0.5% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 98 companies have won 153 public supply contracts for lighting equipment and electric lamps in Sweden, in 75 award notices from 59 public buyers.
  • 97.4% of these awards went to companies registered in Sweden; the most frequent foreign origin is Denmark.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 23.5% of all awards.
  • 10.6% 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.
