Ten companies received about 40% of Barcelona’s municipal contract spending

Barcelona’s city government and its dependent entities awarded 35,717 contracts worth €1.855 billion in 2025, 3.6% more than in 2024.

Ten companies received close to 40% of that spending.

The contracts covered many services, from small purchases to waste collection and street cleaning, which accounted for 18% of the city government’s direct contract spending.

FCC Medio Ambiente was the largest supplier, while three other cleaning contractors also ranked among the five biggest.

The figures show that a large share of municipal contract spending went to a relatively small number of companies.

The rankings list individual suppliers rather than combining companies under their parent groups.

A new €900 million home-care contract, including possible extensions, was awarded to Atende and Serveo, replacing Suara Serveis and Servisar from Tuesday.
