Industrial trucks market to record muted sales in short term, market to rebound strongly projects Fact.MR

The global industrial trucks market was estimated to reach a valuation of US$ 20 Bn by 2020 end. However the most visible impact of COVID-19 has been on the automotive sector. Presently sales of industrial trucks have plummeted considerably with manufacturers scrambling to secure some capital or investor money to circumvent the crisis. Despite this, the long term outlook for the industrial trucks market looks good with the market pegged to surpass US$ 37 Bn by the end of the forecast period (2020-2030).

The COVID-19 outbreak has majorly impacted the OEMs and other players in the global industrial trucks market. Multiple end-use industries such as automotive, aerospace, and construction are shut due to stringent lockdowns. This has resulted in dampened demand for industrial trucks. The demand for industrial trucks is at best moderate in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. On a more positive note, countries like China, India, and Italy have reopened their production plants, resulting in a V-shaped recovery in the industrial trucks market through 2030.
