According to Eshita Goel, Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, “Among types, elevator acquired higher revenue share as compared to escalator in the overall elevator and escalator market in Africa for the year 2020 and is expected to maintain its dominant position over the coming years as well, on account of the growing trend of high-rise buildings and skyscrapers across several countries in the region. Further, due to increase in urbanization and rapid population growth, the residential sector is observing an upsurge in the new installations of elevators which is also augmenting the demand for the product.”
“South Africa was the leading revenue generator country in the overall Africa elevator and escalator market owing to an increase in commercial, industrial, and residential projects across South Africa which is creating a surge in demand for elevators and escalators in the country. The market for countries such as Kenya and Egypt is predicted to show significant growth in the coming years due to increasing public sector spending and public transportation infrastructure development in both these countries.”, Eshita further added.
Some of the major companies in the Africa Elevators and Escalators Market include Otis, KONE, Schindler, Thyssenkrupp and Mitsubishi Electric.
