This would help stakeholders devise and align their market strategies according to the current and future market dynamics.
The Angola excavator, crane and wheel loaders market experienced growth during the past years, supported by a revival in infrastructure development, mining expansion, and urbanization initiatives. The government’s focus on diversifying the economy beyond oil, coupled with investments in roads, bridges, and solar power plants, created sustained demand for heavy construction machinery. At the same time, rising global interest in Angola diamond, copper, lithium, and rare earth resources under improved regulatory frameworks attracted foreign investments, stimulating the need for advanced mining equipment. Additionally, the World Bank–backed urban rehabilitation program and private-sector investments in residential housing, hotels, and commercial facilities further accelerated equipment deployment for earthmoving, lifting, and material handling.
According to 6Wresearch, Angola Excavator, Crane, and Wheel Loaders Market revenue size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during 2025-2031, driven by international investment across infrastructure, real estate, and mining. In 2022, DAMAC Properties signed an MoU to explore high-end residential, hotel, and commercial projects, reflecting rising private sector confidence. Complementing this, the SNL cement and clinker factory in Catumbela would strengthen material supply, enabling faster housing and commercial development requiring extensive use of excavators, cranes, and wheel loaders. Major transport projects are also shaping demand.
In July 2024, China Road and Bridge Corporation secured a contract to build Angola’s first motorway, a corridor connecting the north and south while improving cross-border trade with Namibia and the DRC. Portuguese firms such as Mota-Engil, Teixeira Duarte, and Soares da Costa remain key players, with projects in waterfronts, housing, and border infrastructure requiring significant equipment fleets. In mining, UK-based Pensana’s Longonjo Rare Earth Project and Shining Star’s Mavoio-Tetelo copper project highlight Angola’s growing role in critical minerals, driving sustained demand for excavator, crane, and wheel loaders market.
Crawler excavators are expected to witness the highest growth rate in Angola excavator market during 2025–2031 due to their strong suitability for heavy-duty mining, infrastructure, and oil & gas projects, which dominate the country’s economy. Their ability to operate on rough terrains, higher stability, and efficiency in large-scale earthmoving make them the preferred choice over other types. Additionally, ongoing government investments in construction and resource extraction further fuel their demand.
In 2024, excavators above 30 tons accounted for the largest revenue share due to their extensive use in Angola’s large-scale infrastructure and mining projects. These high-capacity machines are indispensable for road building, motorway construction, and bridge works, which demand deep excavation and heavy lifting capabilities.
In 2024, cranes with a lifting capacity of up to 25 tons accounted for a significant share of the market. This segment is preferred for its suitability in light to medium-duty applications, including residential construction, small-scale infrastructure projects, maintenance works, and material handling in warehouses and factories. Their compact size, cost-effectiveness, and ease of mobility make them an attractive choice for contractors and businesses.
3-5 tons acquired the highest revenue share in 2024 owing to their wide use in construction, urban infrastructure, and material handling at logistics yards and quarries. Moreover, their affordability and versatility make them the workhorse segment.
In 2024, the Construction & Infrastructure sector dominated the segment, supported by Angola accelerating investments in large-scale housing, commercial complexes, and transport infrastructure. Wheel loaders remained indispensable for material handling, road construction, and site preparation, enabling faster project execution and cost efficiency.
In 2024, the Construction & Infrastructure segment accounted for the major revenue share of the excavator market. This dominance is primarily driven by Angola’s large-scale infrastructure developments, including the motorway project awarded to China Road and Bridge Corporation, extensive housing and commercial real estate projects, and the expansion of urban transport networks.
Tower cranes are projected to register the highest growth rate in the Angola crane market during 2025–2031, owing to rapid urbanization, high-rise construction, and commercial infrastructure projects in major cities. Their ability to handle heavy loads at great heights makes them essential for modern building developments. Increasing government focus on housing and commercial real estate further boosts their adoption.
Large wheel loaders are expected to record the highest growth rate in the Angola wheel loader market during 2025–2031 due to their extensive use in mining, quarrying, and large-scale infrastructure projects. Their high loading capacity and efficiency in handling bulk materials make them ideal for Angola’s resource-driven economy. Rising investments in mining and construction activities further strengthen their demand.
