Synthèse
The global office furniture market, estimated at $71 billion in 2020, is set to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% to reach around $93.31 billion by 2026. This growth trajectory is largely fuelled by the service economies taking shape in developing countries. However, the French market faces intense international competition, with foreign groups holding a majority market share of 51%. In terms of product sales, seating, desks, tables and storage dominate, accounting for almost 90% of billings in 2020.
Distribution within the market relies heavily on direct sales by manufacturers and retailers, although online sales are set to grow. The sector has also moved towards value-added services, such as design consultancy. Current trends emphasize well-being at work and the growing demand for high-quality, durable office furniture, in line with the move towards more flexible and comfortable working environments, such as co-working spaces. Despite the predominance of imports, with a coverage rate of 24.6% in 2021, there is a growing awareness of environmentally-friendly procedures and products, which could steer the market towards a more personalized and service-oriented future.
Progressive dynamism of the French office furniture market
The service sector within the office furniture market, which includes design consultancy and other value-added offerings, is experiencing the most considerable growth. Office furniture offerings are aligning with modern office trends that prioritize comfort and well-being, directing demand towards high-quality products. This reshaping of demand is partly due to the move away from traditional offices towards more flexible working environments such as flex offices and co-working spaces. SMEs and mid-sized companies have become important customers, accounting for 41% of total market billings. The market also features a mix of generalist and specialist groups, each segmenting the market with varied product offerings and revenue scales that range from tens to thousands of millions of euros.
The market maintains a good balance between imports and exports, with Europe being both a major source of imports and a main export destination for French office furniture. The influence of the real estate sector on the furniture market is undeniable. Despite a notorious downturn due to COVID-19, with business furniture investment expected to fall by around 8% by 2021, the overall market remains centered on Paris and the La Défense district in particular. Despite these challenges, the furniture market continues to evolve, with companies now more progressively seeking a dynamic balance between office presence and teleworking solutions, which is influencing demand for office furniture.

1.1 Presentation
The office furniture market in France brings together all the players involved in furnishing workspaces, including manufacturers, distributors and retailers.
