Grain mill products, starches and starch products market in Slovakia: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Slovakia awarded 202 supply contracts for grain mill products, starches and starch products through award notices on TED; the 90 of them that state a value (44.6%) add up to €31.8 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. Slovakia imported €139 million of goods in the customs headings matched to grain mill products, starches and starch products in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 1006, 1702, 3505, 1108, 1101 and 5 more headings; all buyers, not only public ones), down 15.1% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 84 companies have won 545 public supply contracts for grain mill products, starches and starch products in Slovakia, in 391 award notices from 64 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in Slovakia.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 49.9% of all awards.
  • 37.6% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Slovakia — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €19.3 billion in 2025, 13.9% 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.

Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
