Introduction
• Manufacturers and wholesalers of mining, quarrying and construction machinery increased sales and exports on the back of the commodities boom, which offset subdued demand from the construction industry.
• Ongoing challenges include limited construction activity, poor economic growth, high input costs, power cuts and the declining competitiveness of South African manufacturers.
• A major local company indicated it will increasingly move some manufacturing offshore to be less exposed to local risks.
• Imports of primary inputs and finished machinery and parts pose a threat to the industry.
• Companies with operations in Russia felt the effect of sanctions and cancelled orders, and suspended some operations.
• There is significant innovation including the use of telematics and autonomous and remote-controlled machinery.
Strengths
• Large, well-established consumer markets.
• Manufacturers invest in R&D and innovation.
• Manufactures high-quality products.
• The provision of good after-sales support.
