Narcotics Scanner Market Drivers

Increased Alcohol and Drug Usage

This equates to 6% of the global population aged 15-64 years. Between 2010 and 2019, the estimated number of past-year users of any drug climbed by 22%, from 226 million to 274 million, due in part to worldwide population growth, which increased by 10% among those driving market growth.

Narcotics Scanner Market Restraint

Substitutes for Drug Trafficking Hampering Market Growth

• Drone demand is increasing across numerous end-use industries throughout the world. Drone adoption is increasing, which in turn raises the unlawful activities related with them. A drone is becoming the most popular means for illicit drug trafficking across the United States-Mexico border, as well as India and other emerging and developed countries. Punjab police apprehended two persons in December 2020 for utilising a drone for cross-border trafficking of firearms and narcotics. As a result, the growing use of drones to violate drug control status poses a significant risk to key market competitors. This aspect is predicted to stifle market expansion.
