Major furniture importing countries. Imports, 2018-2024. Current US$ billion.
The end-of-the-year edition of this World Furniture Outlook Report confirms challenging times for the furniture industry affected by the global geopolitical climate of considerable uncertainty.
The analyst's preliminary figures for 2024 show a slight increase in world furniture trade, but future prospects are negatively impacted by the protectionist agenda of the new US administration. The leading importers of furniture globally are the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and Canada, accounting together for almost half of total imports. While the United States registered a modest increase in furniture imports in 2024, the trend in European countries, despite a significant slowdown in inflation, has not yet shifted toward higher consumption and imports.
The analysts of this report constantly monitor the international trade of furniture including unpredictable circumstances and uncertainties affecting the global market scenario. Furniture market forecasts for 100 countries included in this study reflect the analysts' in-depth knowledge of the markets and their ongoing evaluation.
