Parallel segment, by design, is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period
The parallel shaft gearbox segment, owing to its design, is anticipated to account for the biggest market share within the Middle East & Africa (MEA) industrial gearbox market during the forecast period due to its high efficiency, compactness, and capability of transmitting huge torques with lesser energy loss. These gearboxes find themselves especially ideal for heavy-duty operations like use in cement facilities, mining activity, material handling, and power generation, all priority industries expanding in MEA. They are flexible enough to mount with a low footprint and capable of receiving high radial loads, which qualify them for fitment in highly space-restricted industrial installations prevalent in highly urbanized oil & gas and manufacturing units of GCC countries. In addition, parallel gearboxes' cost-effectiveness and operational longevity have rendered them a choice option for end users in Africa's emerging industrial corridors, where cost-conscious investments in machinery and infrastructure are paramount. As regional investments in renewable energy ventures, desalination facilities, and major infrastructure developments rise, demand for high-performance and scalable gearbox systems such as the parallel shaft type is anticipated to expand steadily, bolstering its position in the MEA industrial gearbox market.
Helical segment, by type, is expected to be the largest segment during the forecast period
The helical gearbox segment, based on type, is estimated to dominate the Middle East & Africa (MEA) industrial gearbox market through the forecast period owing to its greater load-carrying capacity, high efficiency, and smooth torque transmission in a broad spectrum of industrial applications. Helical gearboxes are characterized by their angled teeth design, which allows for smooth engagement of the gears, thus quieter operation and less vibration, making them best suited for mission-critical applications like oil & gas, power generation, cement, steel, and food processing—all of which are experiencing high growth in MEA owing to infrastructure spending and industrial diversification. These gearboxes are especially prized in settings where round-the-clock, high-performance operations are critical, like in Saudi Arabian petrochemical plants, UAE desalination plants, and South African mining activities. Moreover, with the region's increasing emphasis on renewable energy and heavy industry, the demand for robust and energy-efficient power transmission solutions such as helical gearboxes is gaining momentum. Their capacity to manage both high-torque and high-speed conditions and lower maintenance requirements compared to other gear types further explains their popularity, placing the helical segment in a position of being the leading type in the Middle East & Africa industrial gearbox market.
Saudi Arabia is expected to be the largest country segment during the forecast period
During the forecast period, Saudi Arabia is predicted to be the largest country-level market during the forecast period in the Middle East & Africa industrial gearbox market due to the country's commitment to economic diversification, industrial growth, and infrastructure projects under Vision 2030. The country is looking at non-oil developments such as mining, manufacturing, water treatment, renewables, and logistics, all requiring high-torque mechanical power transmission solutions. Mega project developments such as NEOM, Qiddiya, Red Sea Project, and various smart cities and industrial area developments will lead to rapidly increasing demand for high-performing gearboxes. Gearboxes will also see increasing demand as part of the localization of industrial manufacturing, as well as implementations of smart factory automation and energy-efficient technologies. The structured investment in the country, government-supported industrial plans, and recent efforts to modernize national infrastructure position Saudi Arabia as the best opportunity for the growth of the industrial gearbox market.

Judge tosses lawsuit over Trump's firing of US African Development Foundation board members
A federal judge has tossed out a lawsuit over President Donald Trump's dismantling of a U.S. federal agency that invests in African small businesses. U.S. District Judge Richard Leon in Washington, D.C., dismissed the case on Tuesday, finding that Trump was acting within his legal authority when he fired the U.S. African Development Foundation's board members in February. In March, the same judge ruled that the administration's removal of most grant money and staff from the congressionally created agency was also legal, as long as the agency was maintained at the minimum level required by law. USADF was created as an independent agency in 1980, and its board members must be confirmed by the U.S. Senate. In 2023, Congress allocated $46 million to the agency to invest in small agricultural and energy infrastructure projects and other economic development initiatives in 22 African countries. On Feb. 19, Trump issued an executive order that said USADF, the U.S. Institute of Peace, the Inter-American Foundation and the Presidio Trust should be scaled back to the minimum presence required by law. At the time, USADF had five of its seven board seats filled. A few days later, an administration official told Ward Brehm that he was fired, and emails were sent to the other board members notifying them that they had also been terminated. Those emails were never received, however, because they were sent to the wrong email addresses. The four board members, believing they still held their posts because they had not been given notice, met in March and passed a resolution appointing Brehm as the president of the board. But Trump had already appointed Pete Marocco as the new chairman of what the administration believed to now be a board of one. Since then, both men have claimed to be the president of the agency, and Brehm filed the lawsuit March 6. Leon said that even though they didn't receive the emails, the four board members were effectively terminated in February, and so they didn't have the authority to appoint Brehm to lead the board. An attorney for Brehm did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Another lawsuit over the dismantling of the agency is still pending before the same judge. In that case, two USADF staffers and a consulting firm based in Zambia that works closely with USADF contend that the Trump administration's efforts to deeply scale back the agency wrongly usurps Congress' powers. They also say Marocco was unlawfully appointed to the board, in part because he was never confirmed by the Senate as required. Leon's ruling in Brehm's case did not address whether the Trump administration had the power to install Marocco as board chair on a temporary basis.
