Africa OTR Tire Market to Grow with a CAGR of 6.58% through 2030
Expansion in mining and infrastructure activities,
increasing agricultural mechanization, and rising demand for replacement tires
across industrial fleets are the factors driving the market in the forecast
period 2026–2030.
According to TechSci Research report, “Africa OTR
Tire Market – Country, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2020-2030F”, Africa
OTR Tire Market was valued at USD 1.02 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach
USD 1.50 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 6.58% during the forecast
period. The African OTR tire market is evolving in response to growing
demand from sectors that rely on heavy-duty vehicles, such as mining,
agriculture, and industrial logistics. Increased investments in mechanized
operations and transport infrastructure are generating continuous need for
robust tire solutions capable of handling rough terrains and intense workloads.
Agricultural transformation and rising construction projects contribute further
to demand.
The market is experiencing notable shifts with the
introduction of new tire technologies. Radial tires are replacing older designs
in several applications, offering improved efficiency and durability. There is
a clear move toward digital solutions, with embedded sensors and fleet
management platforms enhancing tire performance monitoring. Energy-saving tires
and eco-friendly raw materials are increasingly emphasized, aligning with
broader sustainability and cost-control objectives.
However, the sector is challenged by operational and
structural limitations. Import reliance, unstable material prices, and a lack
of harmonized technical standards across African markets complicate growth.
Skill gaps in advanced servicing and limited awareness of tire lifecycle cost
also restrict long-term value realization.

Africa OTR Tire Market is Segmented By Vehicle Type, By
Demand Category, By Type, and By Country.
Mining equipment represents an important segment where tires
are used on haul trucks, loaders, and drilling machines operating in demanding
environments. These tires are designed for durability, resistance to cuts, and
the ability to withstand heavy loads across challenging terrains. Industrial
equipment also forms a key category, encompassing forklifts, port handling
machines, and material transport vehicles used in logistics hubs, factories,
and construction sites. The rising expansion of warehousing and infrastructure
projects continues to create demand for specialized tires suited to
high-capacity and continuous operations.
Agriculture vehicles represent another crucial segment, with
tractors, harvesters, and irrigation equipment depending on OTR tires that
perform well in both soft soils and rugged fields. The shift toward
mechanization across farming regions is expanding tire usage for various
agricultural machines, supporting higher productivity. ATVs are gaining
traction as they are used for farming support, recreational purposes, and
patrolling in areas with rough terrain. Their tire demand is shaped by the need
for balance between grip and maneuverability on diverse surfaces. Other
categories include military and specialized off-road vehicles that require
tires built for resilience under harsh conditions and unpredictable usage. Each
of these vehicle types relies on tire solutions engineered for performance,
safety, and efficiency, reflecting the wide scope of demand in Africa’s OTR
tire industry across sectors that depend on reliable mobility in demanding
environments.
In Egypt, demand for OTR tires is supported by the expansion
of infrastructure, energy, and industrial sectors. The government’s continued
investment in new road networks, ports, and large-scale construction projects
has encouraged the deployment of heavy-duty machinery, creating steady
requirements for reliable off-road tires. Mining activity, though smaller
compared to some other African nations, is gradually expanding with exploration
projects, adding to equipment utilization across quarrying and mineral
extraction. Agriculture also plays a central role, with increased mechanization
of farming contributing to tractor and harvester tire demand. The drive to
modernize agricultural practices, coupled with rising food production needs, is
pushing farmers to adopt durable machinery supported by OTR tires that can
handle variable soil conditions and long hours of operation.
