Technavio has released a new market research report on the global home furnishings market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% between 2016 and 2020. High-end furnishings are considered status symbols by upper-class households, who prefer buying designer furniture, floor coverings, and textiles. The growing significance of home décor has led consumers to seek unique and designer home furnishings. An increasing preference for premium or luxury home furnishing products, a rise in household disposable incomes, and rapid globalization have accelerated the sales of home furnishings. Europe leads the global home furnishings market due to the presence of key vendors such as IKEA and Masco that provide consumers with a broad range of products.
The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
“Of late, the furniture manufacturers and retailers have begun selling furniture, floor coverings, and other home décor products online through user-friendly websites and attractive product offers. This platform allows manufacturers to cover many regions without any physical presence. It also reduces the cost involved in warehousing at different locations. The convenience of purchasing at a time and place of the customer’s choosing and the availability of safe and hassle-free delivery options have led to more online purchases by consumers,” says Brijesh Kumar Choubey, Lead Analyst, Consumer & Retail, Technavio Research
