The increasing use of vehicles in warehouses and distribution centers for load placement and removal from storage racks, trailer loading and unloading, and safely delivering components to the delivery line is one factor driving the target market's growth. Forklift truck demand is expected to rise in the coming years across industries such as consumer goods, automotive, aerospace, food and beverage, retail, and construction. Forklifts are manufactured all over the world.

Moreover, the growth of the warehouse industry as a service sector, as well as implicit efforts, investments, and research and development activities by manufacturers, contribute to an increase in the forklift rental market. With rising consumer spending and expanding economies, it is predicted that industrial output, fixed investment spending, power production, and mining activity will grow. Manufacturing and other sectors place a strong emphasis on luring large amounts of foreign capital. The government is expanding the building of power plants, railroads, and airports, which will positively impact the target market growth.

North America is Expected to Hold a Considerable Share in Target Market

The key factor driving the market has been the rise in demand for high-performance forklifts. As forklifts typically have service lives of 10 to 12 years, a constant need to replace outdated forklifts is the main driver of the North American market. Many businesses in developed nations have begun to replace their outdated forklift trucks with more powerful, energy-efficient machinery in response to the growing demand for forklifts that are faster and of higher quality. The increased adoption of fuel-efficient vehicles is predicted to lead to an increase in demand for forklift trucks in North America. Engine and hydraulic system changes are made by manufacturers to improve vehicle efficiency. In the coming years, the United States is expected to expand its global print market.

For instance, Sunstate Equipment intends to expand its business outside nine states in the South and West (including Texas and California), where it is currently active to pursue sustained growth. The United States has seen an increase in demand for construction equipment rentals, driven in part by the demand for improvements to the aging public infrastructure of the nation. Sunstate Equipment will work in collaboration with Sumitomo Corporation to elevate customer service standards. This will enable it to establish itself as a key player in the construction equipment rental industry in the United States.

Future developments in other markets are anticipated to experience increased economic growth. This innovative project will use the integrated corporate power of Sumitomo Corporation to expand business operations globally. This operational expertise was developed in Japan at firms acquired in the United States.
