Study Overview

Reaching all types of consumers and offering a very wide range of products, the furniture market nevertheless remains mainly a renewal market, i.e. one in which replacement purchases are more important than first-time purchases. In a market historically controlled by players present in physical outlets(Ikea, But, Maisons du Monde, Gifi...), traditional retailers are increasingly confronted with the rise of e-commerce and the second-hand market, and must therefore adapt to new market realities. There are several types of furniture:

soft furnishings ; kitchen furniture ; upholstered furniture (sofas, armchairs and benches) ; bedding ; bathroom furniture; garden furniture.

The global furniture market, a dynamic and constantly evolving sector, is estimated at $516.66 billion. The projected growth of the global furniture market to 2030, with a CAGR of 5.36%, testifies to the scale and speed of its expansion. However, to fully understand the potential and specific challenges of this market, it is essential to take a closer look at trends and dynamics within national markets, particularly that of France. The French furniture market has seen significant growth between 2021 and 2022, with an increase of 2%. This growth, though modest, is indicative of consumer trends in France and the factors influencing furniture purchases. These factors include changing consumer preferences, the impact of technological innovations, interior design trends, and overall economic conditions affecting purchasing power and consumer habits. As a result, outdoor furniture has been the fastest-growing sector in recent years. However, the sector is having to contend with rising prices. The furniture market, historically dominated by well-established, physical players, is therefore in the midst of a revolution, with a bright future ahead.
