US demand to rise 4.6% annually through 2016 Demand for commercial refrigeration equipment in the US is forecast to increase 4.6 percent per year to $9.4 billion in 2016.

Ice machines will also record above average growth due to increased construction of hotels and motels, which are major end users of this equipment.

We see little room for a quick recovery in private consumption in 2012. Unemployment remains stubbornly high, running at over 15%, while the anticipated pick-up in foreign investment will take time to feed through to consumer spending. Moreover, much of the foreign aid that has been pledged to the government will likely be tied to specific infrastructure projects. Although this will have benefits in terms of employment, it will also limit the government's room to implement populist spending policies such as public sector wage hikes or increased subsidies for food and fuel, which would boost consumer spending more directly.
