North America Loader Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report (2025-2034)

The North America loader market reached around USD 6.55 Billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.40% between 2025 and 2034 to reach nearly USD 10.08 Billion by 2034.

North America Loader Market Growth

The anticipated growth of Canada’s mining industry is expected to increase the demand for loaders. In 2022, domestic gold production surged by 6.9 million ounces, which made it the world’s fifth-largest producer. Major mining companies increased their exploration budgets by 29% year-on-year to reach $2.68 billion. This is substantially higher than the global average increase of 16% in 2022 and outpaced other countries such as Australia and the United States. Companies engaged in the production of nonferrous metals also increased their budgets by 15% year-on-year to reach $4.1 million. Increasing innovations in skid steer and wheeled loaders are expected to complement the market expansion in the forecast period.

In 2021, Canada’s manufacturing industry generated a revenue of $787.3 billion, recording a year-on-year growth of 16.1% from 2020 and rising by $39.1 billion from 2019. The production of goods, which represents nearly 94% of the total earnings, rose in 18/21 subsectors. This was a growth of 16.2% year-on-year. Coal and petroleum, wood, primary metals, and chemical production recorded the highest increases, recording a growth of $84.9 billion. This is expected to increase the demand for sustainable loaders that can facilitate material handling and ensure secure transportation of goods, thereby driving market growth.Key Trends and Developments
