Japan, although a small country, but is one of the leading and strongest economies in the world. The economy of the country saw negative growth during the global financial crises, but Japan has revived in a very robust manner. The country is one of the leading hubs for technical innovation and research in the world and has one of the best networks of roads, trains and airports across the country. Japan is one of the pioneers and leaders in development of bullet trains. The government has been investing heavily to develop the public infrastructure, not only in major cities but across the country. More than 90% of the country’s population lives in urban areas. The major cities like Tokyo, Osaka, Yokohama and Nagoya have been expanding. People from across the country migrate to cities like this and have been contributing in the increasing demand for public infrastructure, commercial complexes and residential spaces. The real estate sector of the country has also been witnessing positive growth from the past few years. The positive growth in the economy, high investments and development of public infrastructure & real estate sector of have been the key drivers for the elevator and escalators market in the country. All these reasons have collectively catapulted the elevators and escalators market in the past few years.
After the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and the Fukushima Nuclear Accident a substantial portion of the country’s infrastructure, was destroyed and needed maintenance and upgradation. The government has released huge funds for the same and is expanding the public services.

This is another factor that has affected the elevator and escalator market in a positive manner.
