China's living room furniture exports are growing by about 25% annually. Sofas - accounting for the bulk of living room furniture - experience the most robust growth. Since 2006, the country's overseas shipments of sofas have surpassed that of Italy, formerly the world's largest exporter of the line. China's share will most likely get even bigger in the future. Capacity expansions, mainly via production automation and procurement of additional machines, will help Chinese makers to meet the growing demand.
North America and the EU are the two largest markets, absorbing more than 70% of China's exports. In particular, the US, the UK, Canada, together with Japan and Australia, are the top five importing countries. Most China suppliers will set their sights on the EU market to take advantage of the region's growing purchasing power and its steady demand for upscale furniture.
OEM and ODM buyers range from huge retailers, including Wal-Mart and Target of the US and France's Carrefour, to living room furniture manufacturers such as Dorel Industries, Inc. of the US, Primo International of Canada and the UK's Andy Thornton Ltd. An increasing number of top foreign sofa makers are establishing new factories in China. In fact, more than half of living room furniture exported to the US is manufactured by US companies based in China.
Prices continue to increase as suppliers grapple with rising overheads. Soaring raw material costs, the yuan's appreciation, and reduced export tax rebates top the list of factors that lead to rising markups. Nevertheless, China's living room furniture exports continue to grow. The use of alternative materials such as lauan plywood for solid wood, and treated PU or PVC leather for genuine cowhide is receiving increased attention. This is one of the measures China makers are taking to save cost without compromising product quality.
