In case of COVID-19, MEA is highly affected specially Turkey and South Africa. MEA automated overhead crane market is majorly affected by the disruption in the national and international supply chains. Gulf countries have got many oil companies that require overhead cranes for their operations. Several governments announced travel restrictions, the movement of people was limited and thus the demand for fuels was reduced. Since the demand for fuels, i.e., petrol and diesel, was decreased, this impacted the need for overhead cranes at offshore oil rigs, petroleum plants, and refineries. Considering lifting and material handling requirements in cement and concrete factories, workers need gantry cranes in the yard and bridge cranes in factories. Since the overall demand for cement was shrunk, the requirement of gantry cranes and bridge cranes adopted in cement and concrete factories was also reduced. However, post pandemic, the automated overhead cranes market is expected to rise considerably in this region.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the MEA automated overhead crane market. The MEA automated overhead crane market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
