Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Slovenia awarded 130 supply contracts for laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) through award notices on TED; the 80 of them that state a value (61.5%) add up to €20.2 million.

  • Since November 2023, 105 companies have won 254 public supply contracts for laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) in Slovenia, in 121 award notices from 30 public buyers.
  • 80.7% of these awards went to companies registered in Slovenia; the most frequent foreign origin is Germany.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Slovenia — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €10.9 billion in 2025, 15.4% 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.
