Qatar Tyre Market Forecast and Opportunities, 2020

With a population of over 2.28 million in 2015, Qatar is one of the smallest countries within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) in terms of population and geographical area. However, the country ranks first among the richest countries in the world, in terms of GDP per capita. As per OICA, Qatar’s vehicle motorization rate (for passenger cars and commercial vehicles) stood at 424 vehicles per 1,000 people in 2013. As a result of harsh climatic conditions in Qatar, the replacement period of tires is generally about one and a half years.  Moreover, due to absence of tire production in the country, the tire market in Qatar is import driven, with significant penetration of Chinese tire brands due to easy availability and low cost pricing as compared to flagship tire brands. However, it is anticipated that the share of Chinese tire brands in Qatar tire market will decline during the forecast period due to increasing availability of high quality tires by flagship tire brands, which are expected to gain popularity among consumers due to their higher life cycle.
