Furniture Global Market Report 2024

The furniture market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $752.22 billion in 2023 to $805.54 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including the globalization of furniture manufacturing, economic growth and housing expansion, the adoption of sustainable and eco-friendly practices, demographic shifts, and the rise of the do-it-yourself (DIY) culture.

The furniture market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1040.36 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. Forecasted growth is fueled by flexible, multifunctional designs, sustainable practices, wellness-focused furniture, rental markets, and luxury furniture. Major trends include smart furniture, customizable designs, retro styles, biophilic design, and space-saving solutions in furniture.

The expanding real estate industry is poised to drive the growth of the furniture market in the foreseeable future. The real estate sector, encompassing various aspects related to property, including construction, renting, valuation, promotion, and administration, spans across commercial, residential, agricultural, and industrial properties. Within the commercial real estate sector, the demand for furniture is continuous, as businesses require furnishings for offices, hotels, restaurants, retail stores, and other commercial spaces. The ongoing development and renovation of commercial properties contribute to a sustained demand for commercial furniture, encompassing items such as office desks, chairs, and restaurant seating. For example, in September 2022, as reported by Trade Arabia, Bahrain outlined plans to construct over 555,000 residential units, approximately 275,000 hotel rooms, more than 4.3 million square meters of retail space, and over 6.1 million square meters of new office space, with completion expected by 2030. Consequently, the expanding real estate industry is anticipated to fuel the growth of the furniture market.

The furniture market is expected to experience growth due to the increasing demand for online shopping. The advent of e-commerce platforms has provided manufacturers with a broader market reach, allowing them to sell products on a larger scale than ever before. This expanded geographical exposure is contributing to the growth of the furniture manufacturing market. Notably, in countries such as India, e-commerce portals have significantly boosted the sales of furniture manufacturers by providing greater exposure to producers who were previously confined to specific geographic regions.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 Disease (COVID-19) had a significant adverse impact on the furniture market in 2022. The disruption in supply chains due to trade restrictions and the decline in consumption resulting from global lockdowns imposed by governments led to a substantial setback. COVID-19, identified in Wuhan, Hubei province of China in 2019, prompted governments worldwide to implement measures to contain its transmission, resulting in the cessation of manufacturing activities and a downturn in economic activity. The imposition of lockdowns and restrictions negatively affected businesses throughout 2021 and into 2021. However, the furniture manufacturing market is expected to recover from this shock over the forecast period, as the pandemic is considered a 'black swan' event and not indicative of ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

Major players in the furniture market are strategically focusing on developing innovative products, such as transition ranges, to enhance their profitability. Transition range products are designed to promote sustainability among households by encouraging the purchase of longer-lasting items that can be used repeatedly. As an example, in September 2023, Inter IKEA Systems B.V., a Netherlands-based manufacturer and provider of wood-based furniture, introduced three new collections as part of its Transitions range, namely Vivid Wonderland, Glorious Green, and Simple Serenity. These collections incorporate elements that evoke tranquility and bring nature into living spaces, featuring gentle and natural fabrics, green decorative accents, and indoor plants.

Furniture manufacturers are embracing augmented reality (AR) technologies to enhance the sales process, enabling sales representatives to present products more effectively and aiding customers in their decision-making. Augmented reality mobile applications provide customers with the ability to place virtual 3D models of furniture into their actual rooms in real-time. This technology enables customers to visualize furniture from various angles and positions, enhancing their overall shopping experience. A notable example is IKEA's augmented reality application, Place, which empowers customers to preview more than 2,000 furniture pieces within their homes before making a purchase.
