Swedish – Croatian trade has totaled € 418 million in 2023, of which Croatian exports to Sweden amounted to € 246 million, and Swedish export to Croatia to € 172 million.

In February 2024 Swedish company Elekta signed a significant deal with the Croatian Ministry of Health for the sale of 12 linear accelerators, an investment that amounted to € 32 million. The linacs will be deployed at key medical centers, reducing wait times and enhancing access to quality cancer treatment for Croatian citizens

There were also close to 250,000 Swedish tourist that visited Croatia in 2023, with their number constantly on the rise for more than a decade now, which contributes further to trade between the two countries.
