Egypt Two-wheeler Tire Market to Blossom with Expanding E-commerce Sector & Growing Popularity for Electric Two-wheelers

The Egypt Two-wheeler Tire is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 8.37% during the forecast period of 2024-30, cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. The expansion of the market is attributed to various factors, including the extensive utilization of two-wheelers for commercial activities, rapid urbanization, and the increasing transition towards e-mobility in Egypt. Moreover, there is a notable surge in the adoption of two-wheelers for business operations, particularly for last-mile delivery services. Furthermore, the escalating rate of internet penetration in the country is propelling the growth of the e-commerce sector. Consequently, as the e-commerce industry expands, the utilization of two-wheelers for delivery purposes continues to improve, thereby bolstering the demand for scooters & motorbike tires for replacement across Egypt.

Additionally, the swift urbanization observed in cities such as Cairo, Alexandria, and Giza has resulted in a notable increase in the need for transportation options. According to the UN-Habitat Egypt 2023 report, there has been significant rural-to-urban and urban-to-urban migration, with approximately 73% of this migration being absorbed by Cairo and Alexandria. With constrained road infrastructure and worsening traffic congestion, two-wheelers provide a practical and efficient means of commuting, thereby fueling the demand for tires in these areas.

Moreover, increasing measures like incentives & subsidies aimed at promoting e-mobility for personal transportation presents a promising opportunity to enhance the sales of two-wheeler tires in Egypt. As a result, numerous end-users, including delivery & logistics companies, are transitioning to dedicated electric fleets to benefit from tax exemptions on EV imports. Consequently, these government initiatives are expected to significantly increase the demand for replacement two-wheeler tires in Egypt in the coming years, further states the research report, “Egypt Two-Wheeler Tire Market Analysis, 2024.”
