India's furniture market is expected to cross USD 27 billion by the end of the year 2025, making the furniture market in India a billion-dollar Industry. Factors contributing to the growth of India's furniture market include the middle-class population, rising disposable income, and an increasing number of urban households. With the recent entry of leading global players in India, the market share of the organized sector has been growing consistently. The industry has been increasingly adopting best practices when it comes to sourcing, manufacturing, distribution, and skilled resources.
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. The furniture industry in India is a part of the home furnishing industry and occupies the largest share (~50% in 2019) in the home furnishing market. 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% during 5 years before that. Furthermore, Indian furniture exports witnessed an astounding growth rate of 222% in 2021-2022 compared to 2013-2014, thus proving the competency of 'Made in India' products in global markets. Clearly these statistics augur well for the event.
Sivakumar Venugopal, Group Director, Member of the Management Board, NuernbergMesse India, is confident about the future of the woodworking and furniture manufacturing Industry, "INDIAWOOD has been growing significantly over the last few years, in sync with the growth of the industry and 2022 will be an important milestone for the event. The event assumes an even enhanced significance in present times and will emerge as an effective forum for networking, business generation and observing latest trends and innovations. Together with our exhibitors and partners, we are confident of delivering an event on par with international standards, as in the past years."
Juergen Koeppel, President, EUMABOIS (European Federation of Woodworking Machinery Manufacturers) is upbeat about the potential of the market. He further adds, "India enjoys a favorable position as a 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."
By focusing on the latest trends in carpentry, skilling, innovation, automation and digitalization, INDIAWOOD aims to drive Indian furniture manufacturing and woodworking industry and establish India as one of the top manufacturing destinations in the region.
Spread over 65,000 sq. meters plus area with 5 dedicated themed halls, the event is expected to attract a record number of visitors.
