CIFM/interzum guangzhou, considered Asia's premier furniture manufacturing event, will be held at the Canton Fair Complex in Guangzhou from March 28-31, 2024. With 1,200 exhibitors from around the world occupying 160,000 square meters, the event expects to attract more than 150,000 trade visitors and offer international exhibitors unique access to the Chinese market and beyond.
Seizing China's "dual circulation" opportunities
According to statistics, the global furniture market passed the US$600 billion mark in 2022 and is expected to continue growing at a compound annual growth rate of 5% over the next four years (2023-2026).
As the global furniture market continues to grow, CIFM/interzum guangzhou is seizing the opportunities presented by China's "dual circulation" strategy to actively facilitate international brands' entry into the vast Chinese market - which ranks first in the world in terms of furniture production, consumption and export - while promoting the globalization of domestic brands.
