Ethiopia And Djibouti Heavy Equipment Market Outlook - 2026
The Ethiopia and Djibouti heavy equipment market size was $323.9 million in 2018, and is projected to reach $496.1 million in 2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.6%.
Heavy equipment includes earthmoving machinery, material handling machinery, roadway machinery, and others. Earthmoving equipment is used to move large amounts of earth or to dig foundations and landscape areas; material handling equipment is used to move raw, waste material from one place to another; and roadway machinery such as graders, road rollers, and pavers, are used in the proper construction of roads.
Increased focus on workplace safety, large adoption in the manufacturing sector for material handling, and increase in mining activities fuel the demand for heavy construction equipment used in material handling. In addition, major companies such as Caterpillar and others, are offering high quality and heavy-duty earth moving machinery in this market. For instance, Caterpillar through its authorized dealer Ries Engineering S. Co. (RESCO) deals in a variety of products such as excavators, backhoe loaders, and others.
High capital investment followed by sale of used and rental equipment sale in Ethiopia and Djibouti acts as a major restraint for the Ethiopia and Djibouti heavy equipment market. However, rise in air pollution and huge carbon emissions make way for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly heavy equipment, which in turn reduce environmental degradation. Further, introduction of telematics and integrated grade control systems has witnessed high demand as it aims to decrease cost and reduce risk of damage or theft of the equipment.
Companies are introducing new technology roadway machineries that are equipped with the ACERT engine technology and provide excellent fuel economy and durability, which helps to significantly reduce operating costs. Technological advancements and innovation such as IOT and others, have led to the development of more intelligent and powerful construction equipment, which acts as a major driving factor. Moreover, huge investments in the infrastructure sector drives the growth of graders and pavers. The Addis Ababa–Djibouti Railway project was constructed with a total investment of $4 billion, out of which 70% investment was provided by China Exim Bank and 30% by the Ethiopian government.
