South Africa Wholesale and Retail Trade in Construction and Building Materials Industry Outlook
Demand for construction and building materials will be driven by construction activity, which is projected to be buoyed by investments in transport, energy, mixed-use developments, and affordable housing projects.
Although the operating environment is showing signs of recovery, the industry’s growth prospects risk being undermined by the developing global trade war.
The cost of various imported products is set to escalate, US demand is likely to contract, and supply chains could experience high levels of disruption.
The materials sector continues to innovate, with a focus on climate resilience and sustainable building solutions.
