Home improvement has emerged as the most significant trend across market segments, the key drivers being heightened concerns of safety & hygiene and the work-from-home imperative. The kitchen and cabinetry industry is going to be a major beneficiary of this trend.
The Indian home improvement (also referred to as home and living) market is estimated at $25–28 billion, with furniture accounting for about 50 per cent. Nodal foreign investment agency Invest India valued the Indian furniture market at $17.4 billion in FY21. It predicts it will reach $37.7 billion by 2026, growing at double-digit CAGR of 13.37% during 2020-2026. The kitchen and cabinetry business forms a part of this vibrant furniture sector.
The Indian government has identified furniture as one of the key categories for taking made-in-India goods to global corners. Policy approach for boosting the furniture sector involves building competencies for making the entire value chain cost-efficient. And, doubling or tripling exports by increasing the size of the industry within the next 5-6 years.
In the given context, the 9th edition of India Kitchen Congress will offer strategies for winning in the Indian market, and for making in India for rest of the world.
Furniture fittings specialist Hettich is the platinum sponsor at the conference, consumer goods major Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd is gold sponsor, and Furniture & Fittings Skill Council is the knowledge partner.
