The Middle East & Africa region is expected to see significant growth in the autonomous mobile robot market, driven by rising infrastructure development and the push toward smart factories and Industry 4.0 in countries like Turkey and Saudi Arabia. The adoption of autonomous mobile robots is also growing in the healthcare sector across the region. A notable development in this market is the partnership between Savoye, a global leader in automated and robotic systems for logistics and supply chains, and HAI Robotics. This collaboration aims to introduce HAIPICK solutions to the Middle East, addressing the increasing demand for autonomous technology in supply chain and logistics operations.
The countries examined in this region include United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Israel, South Africa, and Rest of Middle East & Africa.
Saudi Arabia leads with the highest market share, accounting for nearly $22.35 million in 2023.
- In 2021, Quara Holding signed a strategic agreement with KWRS to introduce autonomous robotics to Saudi Arabia for the first time. The agreement allows Quara Robotics, an investment of Quara Holding, to exclusively represent KWRS in Saudi Arabia and offer their range of AI-powered robotics.
- These AI robotics solutions target multiple sectors, including retail, manufacturing, service, hospitality, e-commerce, and security, aiming to enhance efficiency, reduce operating costs, and simplify processes.
- As these benefits become more evident, the adoption of AMRs is likely to increase, accelerating market growth in the country and encouraging other countries to follow suit in embracing automation and AI technologies.
Autonomous Mobile Robots Market Trends in the United Arab Emirates
The autonomous mobile robots market in the UAE is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the country’s strong emphasis on adopting advanced technologies to enhance efficiency across various sectors. Recent news reports stated that Micropolis, a Dubai-based manufacturer specializing in autonomous mobile robots, is set to expand its operations by building a new production facility and tripling its workforce. With this new plant, the company aims to significantly scale up its manufacturing capabilities to produce over 350 robots annually, positioning itself to meet the growing demand for advanced robotics solutions in the region.
Similarly, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has been exploring the use of autonomous robots for last-mile delivery and smart city applications, reflecting a broader trend toward AI integration in urban infrastructure. These initiatives are creating a robust ecosystem for the growth of the AMR market.
The market segments for autonomous mobile robots consist of end-user, robot type, application, and component. The end-user segment includes automotive, logistics & e-commerce, aerospace & defense, electronics, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), healthcare & pharmaceuticals, and other end-users. AMRs are widely used in automotive industries for material handling, assembly line support, and intra-logistics tasks, such as transporting components like engines, tires, and other parts across different sections of the production floor. These robots also help in reducing human error, enhance safety, and increase overall productivity in automotive manufacturing.
