Saifa Khalid, Senior Analyst at PTR, asserts in the article that the global market for medium-voltage (MV) distribution transformers is projected to reach USD 20 billion by 2027, with the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region leading growth at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) exceeding 6%. This growth is driven by escalating electricity demand due to rapid urbanization, industrialization, and infrastructure investments across APAC countries like China and India. As the distribution transformer market rises in the APAC region, various sales channels play a crucial role in increasing demand. Unlike mature markets in North America and Europe, the distribution transformer sales landscape in the APAC region is characterized by a complex interplay of various channels, including direct sales, distributors, and EPCs (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction). 

 Manufacturers in the APAC region must adapt their sales strategies to diverse market dynamics and customer preferences. Developed economies such as Japan and South Korea prioritize quality, energy efficiency, and advanced technical specifications in distribution transformers, whereas emerging economies like India and Vietnam focus on cost-effectiveness and speedy delivery. Key trends shaping the distribution transformer market in APAC include forging partnerships with knowledgeable local distributors. Embracing digital transformation through online platforms and digital marketing is essential for broadening customer reach and optimizing sales processes. The APAC market for MV transformers offers substantial potential for manufacturers: by comprehending regional variations, establishing partnerships, and embracing digital transformation initiatives.
