Positive Outlook for Participating Companies
Participants at IFMAC & WOODMAC 2024 can expect unique benefits, with the event offering an ideal platform for both international and local companies to enhance their presence in the Indonesian market, supported by strong industry and government backing. The Indonesian Furniture and Handicraft Association (HIMKI) has provided an optimistic market outlook for 2024. According to HIMKI General Chairman Abdul Sobur, export market growth is projected to reach 5-8%, while domestic market growth is expected to range between 4-6%. Government initiatives, such as the Machinery and Equipment Restructuring Programme for the Wood Processing Industry, are designed to boost the competitiveness of the industry and support the development of upstream agro-industries.
A Thriving Industry Landscape
Indonesia’s furniture market is experiencing significant growth, with projections indicating a 6.33% annual increase from 2023 to 2028, leading to a market volume of approximately $4.24 billion by 2028. This growth is driven by the country’s expanding middle class and rapid urbanisation, which are fuelling a surge in furniture demand both domestically and internationally.
