China is a major player in the global two-way radio market, both as a manufacturer and consumer. The market is driven by extensive use in public safety, urban security, energy, and large-scale industrial operations. Government initiatives like “Safe City” programs, combined with stringent public security mandates, have led to high-volume deployments of professional mobile radios (PMRs). The nation is transitioning rapidly from analog to digital systems, with DMR and TETRA technologies gaining traction in urban areas. However, market growth is slightly restrained by regulatory complexities and frequency spectrum management, particularly in rural regions. China's dominance in manufacturing allows local companies to offer cost-effective radio solutions with enhanced features such as encryption, data transfer, and integration with IoT systems. Trends suggest a rising interest in AI-driven analytics and PoC systems as the 5G rollout deepens. The private sector especially warehousing, ports, and construction has also adopted radios for operational efficiency. From 2025 to 2030, China’s two-way radio market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2%, supported by domestic demand, smart infrastructure expansion, and export growth.
