Abstract
SUMMARY:
This report provides an overview of the world furniture industry with basic
data (production, consumption, imports, exports) and scenario 2008/2009 for 60
furniture markets. The growth of furniture imports and the role of furniture
exporting countries in the world marketplace are also considered. Prospects of
world furniture trade in 2008/2009 and forecasts on the evolution of furniture
markets in the 60 countries (selected according to their contribution to
production and international trade of furniture) are based on the analysis of
furniture industry dynamics and of macro-economic indicators.
Market shares of the major furniture exporters are provided by geographical
region and developed countries/emerging countries. The analysis of the opening
of furniture markets covers the past nine years, with data on trade balance,
imports/consumption and exports/production ratio.
Statistics and outlook data are also available in a country format: origin of
furniture imports, destination of furniture exports, historical series on
furniture production, consumption and trade, country rankings to place all
statistics in a broad worldwide context.
The report provides a picture of opportunities for furniture exporters arising
from the increasing openness of markets and a rich collection of key
country-data, allowing comparisons among specific interest areas.
