Land mobile radio market seen reaching $46.04 billion by 2030

The Business Research Company says the global land mobile radio market is set to grow from $28.59 billion in 2026 to $46.04 billion by 2030, driven by public safety demand, digital upgrades and wider use in utilities, logistics and manufacturing. North America led the market in 2025, while Asia-Pacific is projected to grow fastest. Why it matters: - Land mobile radio remains a core communications tool for public safety and other high-stakes sectors that need reliable, secure, two-way coverage. - The market’s growth signals continued investment in emergency response networks, industrial communications and modernized radio infrastructure. - Rising disaster risk is increasing demand for systems that can work when other networks fail. What happened: - The Business Research Company forecast the global land mobile radio market will rise from $25.33 billion in 2025 to $28.59 billion in 2026. - The report projects the market will reach $46.04 billion by 2030. - The forecast implies a 12.9% CAGR from 2025 to 2026 and a 12.6% CAGR through 2030. - The report is titled “Land Mobile Radio Market Report 2026 – Market Size, Trends, And Global Forecast 2026-2035.” - The company released the report from London on June 17, 2026. - The report includes a free sample at sample report . - The full report is available at the full market report . The details: - Land mobile radio, or LMR, is a wireless communication technology used for critical communications by police, firefighters and other emergency responders. - LMR is also used in industrial operations, transportation, utilities, security, logistics and military activities. - The technology enables two-way, push-to-talk communication between radio transceivers. - Early market growth came from adoption in public safety, commercial sectors and transportation, plus continued use of analog communication systems. - Logistics and manufacturing also helped drive expansion. - Future growth is expected to come from digital LMR solutions, IP-based radio networks and broader adoption in energy and utility sectors. - Cloud-based management systems and enhanced emergency communication networks are also expected to support growth. - Emerging trends highlighted in the report include AI-enabled LMR systems, digital radio monitoring platforms, real-time communication management, smart spectrum optimization and expanded connected public safety networks. - The report says North America held the largest market share in 2025. - The report projects Asia-Pacific will be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. - The report covers Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East and Africa. - The report adds market attractiveness scoring, TAM analysis, company scoring matrices, Excel-based forecasting dashboards, market hotspots infographics, key technology analysis and updated graphics and tables. Between the lines: - Disaster response is a major demand signal for the market, not just a background theme. - In April 2025, the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters reported that EM-DAT recorded 393 natural hazard-related disasters in 2024. - Those disasters caused 16,753 deaths, affected 167.2 million people and produced $241.95 billion in economic losses. - The size of those losses helps explain why public safety and emergency organizations keep investing in resilient communications. - The regional split suggests mature public-safety infrastructure is still anchoring demand in North America, while industrialization and network buildouts are opening faster growth in Asia-Pacific. What’s next: - The market is likely to keep shifting from analog systems toward digital and IP-based radio networks. - Public safety agencies, utilities and industrial users are expected to remain the main demand base. - The report’s forecast points to sustained expansion through 2030 if emergency communications spending and modernization continue. - The Business Research Company says its Global Market Model and broader research library are available for buyers seeking updated forecasts and market intelligence. The bottom line: - Land mobile radio is moving from a legacy communications tool to a growing digital infrastructure market with strong demand from emergency response and critical industries.
