Growth Drivers for Electric Forklifts in Southeast Asia

In recent years, the industrial and logistics systems across Southeast Asia have maintained steady and rapid upgrading, and the market penetration rate of electric forklifts in local industrial scenarios has been rising at a reasonable pace. Multiple measurable and compliant driving factors work together to support the long-term positive development of the whole industry. First of all, the guidance of regional green industrial policies plays a fundamental supporting role. Many Southeast Asian countries have successively introduced formal guidelines for industrial emission reduction, and put forward clear annual reduction requirements for carbon emissions of off-road mobile equipment in factory areas. The application scenarios of traditional internal combustion forklifts have been reasonably restricted in more closed indoor operation spaces, and a large number of operating enterprises actively turn to zero-emission electric forklift products to meet policy compliance requirements. Second, the rapid expansion of logistics infrastructure and e-commerce business releases huge market demand. Local cross-border e-commerce and domestic warehousing networks in Southeast Asia continue to expand in recent years, and a large number of newly built warehousing and distribution centers need to match indoor operation equipment with low noise and zero exhaust emissions. The applicable scenarios of electric forklifts cover multiple segmented fields such as ordinary storage, cold chain parks and port transshipment, and the rigid market demand continues to be fully released. Third, the long-term cost advantage of use further enhances user willingness to purchase. With the continuous technical iteration of the upstream power battery industry chain, the comprehensive purchase cost of electric forklifts has decreased steadily in recent years, and the daily power consumption cost is much lower than the fuel expenditure of internal combustion forklifts. The input-output ratio of the whole life cycle of electric forklifts shows more prominent advantages, which is recognized by a large number of small and medium-sized logistics enterprises. Fourth, the continuous improvement of local after-sales service system removes the core concerns of users. Industry participants including Jianshu New Energy keep building the regional after-sales system, and the localized operation and maintenance stations laid out by BYD Forklift cover the parts supply and rapid maintenance services in most core industrial cities, which effectively solves the worries of overseas users in the subsequent use process.
