The market is driven by the increasing demand for cargo handling equipment that can maneuver precisely in constrained areas of intermodal terminals and ports, particularly those with high port capacity. Diesel vehicles remain dominant in this market due to their power and versatility, but emission control systems are becoming increasingly important as governments enforce stricter emission norms. Reach stackers are essential for stacking containers in a safe and efficient manner, and their cargo capacities are continually increasing to meet the demands of larger container ships and multi-shift operations. Automated vehicles and driver-assistance systems are also gaining traction in the market, as are electric motors and energy-efficient designs.
Moreover, infrastructure development and trade volumes continue to drive growth in the market, with logistics hubs and transportation hubs requiring advanced cargo handling equipment to optimize turnarounds and minimize air pollution. Crane operations and terminal retrieval systems are also key applications for reach stackers, as they enable efficient container handling and stacking in ports and shipping terminals.

By Type Insights

The IC engine segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

Reach stackers, a crucial handling equipment in ports, enable efficient loading and unloading of containers. Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) reach stackers, an alternative to electric and hybrid models, offers several advantages. ICE reach stackers have a lower ownership cost due to their shorter refueling time of approximately 5 minutes and longer operational hours of around 8 hours. In contrast, electric and hybrid reach stackers require around 8 hours to recharge once the battery is discharged. This reduced downtime for ICE reach stackers translates to increased productivity. While electric and hybrid models offer environmental benefits, ICE reach stackers remain a viable investment opportunity for ports seeking to maintain operational efficiency.

The market in the Asia-Pacific region is projected to experience significant growth due to the increasing international and regional trade activities. The economic expansion of major economies, including China, India, and Japan, is a primary factor fueling market growth. Cross-border trade is being facilitated through various regional cooperation initiatives and free trade agreements, such as the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA), Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC), Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), and South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC). These agreements are driving container retrieval and port operations management, n

Whisky Production revenue is expected to swell at a compound annual growth rate of 4% over the five years through 2025-26 to £6.7 billion. Much of this growth is attributed to booming post-pandemic demand, as retailers rushed to replenish depleted stocks when lockdown restrictions were lifted, international travel resumed and on-trade sales rebounded. Producers capitalised on growing demand from emerging markets like Taiwan and India to boost export figures, the largest revenue source of the industry, which benefitted revenue. Premiumisation trends, driven by growing demand for quality drinking experiences over quantity, further supported revenue growth as consumers increasingly traded up to higher-value expressions. This saw Major players like Diageo double down on premiumisation strategies, leveraging Scotch whisky’s rich heritage to target affluent consumers and maintain consistent demand despite broader economic headwinds. While export volumes to Asia have surged post-pandemic, with Asia-Pacific exports up 45 percent since 2019 driven by growing middle-class demand for premium whisky, overall export value has fallen amid price pressures, weighing on industry revenue. Rising costs, including a sharp hikes in the alcohol duty in August 2023 and February 2025, have pushed up prices, harming exports to price-sensitive markets. In recent years, rising health consciousness has contributed to a slump in alcohol consumption and sales to on-trade establishments. In response, distillers are placing greater emphasis on quality, targeting consumers who prioritise premium products over quantity. At the same time, producers are strengthening relationships with off-trade retailers to help offset weakening demand from the on-trade channel. Industry revenue is projected to drop by a compound annual rate of 1.1% in 2025-26, with profit nudging down to 30.6%. Revenue is forecast to climb at a compound annual rate of 2.6% to £7.6 billion over the five years through 2030-31. A UK–India trade deal, expected to take effect in late 2026, will cut tariffs on Scotch whisky by half, helping boost exports to India and tap into the country’s growing demand for premium Scotch. However, the reintroduction of tariffs by the US on British goods in April 2025 threatens to dampen export momentum, echoing the disruption caused by similar measures in 2019. At the same time, brands are focusing on sustainability commitments to meet tightening government regulations and consumer expectations. Alcohol duty is set to climb each February in line with inflation, pushing prices higher for consumers and potentially weakening demand. A proposal launched in February 2025 allowing whisky distilled in England to be classed as single malt further emphasises the role of government intervention in shaping industry performance, with Scotch producers warning it could dilute the value of the Scotch name and intensify competition in premium markets in the coming years.
