Size, segmentation, competition, growth and trends underlying the manufacture of lightweight cargo trailers and toy haulers in North America for recreational and commercial use
Abstract
Enclosed cargo trailers are the predominant way to transport cars, motorcycles, equipment and snowmobiles in a protected environment to a race track, car show, campground or work site. SpecialtyVehicles.net feels that this market is the largest light-duty trailer product category in dollar sales.
The manufacture of cargo trailers is a highly fragmented business, with 126 identifiable players spread across the U.S. and Canada. Pace America, Wells Cargo, Forest River, Carry-On and Haulmark are manufacturers with multiple production facilities. A key characteristic of this industry is the low degree of customization, with manufacturers building standardized products. However, in the toy hauler market, units are more expensive because they are more customized to the customer's needs.
This report is a attempt to cohesively research, analyze and put into a structured format, “who is who” in the business of enclosed cargo trailer manufacturing on a continental basis. We have identified three different product categories in the dump semi trailer market.
- Bumper-pull cargo trailers
|
- Gooseneck/Fifth-wheel cargo trailers
|
|
Most manufacturers build bumper-pull trailers, but some companies do produce more than one product category.
There a number of regional manufacturers in both standardized (bumper-pull and gooseneck) and customized (toy haulers) categories.
The report provides a competitive and market analysis of the size and segmentation underlying the manufacture of cargo trailers. Additionally the report seeks to analyze product range differentiators, trends impacting the industry, and future outlook, including key technological innovations. Furthermore, the number of units produced on an aluminum or steel frame and estimated production by vehicle weight have been broken out.
These and other aspects of this analysis are highlighted in this pioneering report by SpecialtyVehicles.net (“SVN”). This report can be put to immediate use for global M&A identification, market size identification, sales planning, country/region strategizing, competitive share analysis, potential alliances through licensing or technology transfer agreements.
