Speaking about the event, Sonia Parashar, Managing Director and Chairperson of the Board, NuernbergMesse India, said, "As India strives to become a manufacturing hub for the world, key initiatives, such as 'Make in India' and 'Vocal for Local', have played a huge role in terms of giving a boost to the manufacturing sector, including furniture manufacture. In current times as the demand for furniture continues to increase, we are confident that the platform of INDIAWOOD will succeed in providing the relevant technologies and solutions to meet the requirements of this sector."

Juergen Koeppel, President, EUMABOIS (European Federation of Woodworking Machinery Manufacturers) is upbeat about the potential of the market and has stated that, "India enjoys a favourable position as market leader with tremendous future possibilities. We invite the woodworking community to make optimal use of this opportunity to re-connect with Industry Peers and re-experience live exhibitions. Look forward to seeing you at INDIAWOOD 2022."

It may be noted that with India poised to become the third largest global economy by 2030, the Government of India has identified the furniture industry as a key enabler to expand the reach of 'Make in India' goods across the globe.

In FY2019, the Indian furniture market was valued at USD 12.6 billion and grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4 per cent during 5 years before that. Furthermore, Indian furniture exports witnessed an astounding growth rate of 222 per cent in 2021-2022 compared to 2013-2014, thus proving the competency of "Make in India" products in global markets.
