US$1.2bn MIFF heads for another sell-out six months out

Six months ahead of its 31st edition Malaysia International Furniture Fair is 85% sold out as visitor registration opens.

The show, which will fill 17 halls at Malaysia International Trade & Exhibition Centre and World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur, takes place from 1-4 March.

This year’s event generated orders worth US$1.28bn during the show.

‘As a pivotal event in Asia’s furniture calendar, MIFF is the gateway for business and cross border opportunities for global growth. Our plan is to elevate the experience to the next level for buyers and exhibitors that evolves around their needs. We want to inspire more fun on the aisles and get more business done, this is where it all happens,’ says Kelie Lim, MIFF general manager.

‘The innovative approach of the show has kept it resilient and it continues as a vital platform for Malaysian furniture makers to engage face-to-face with buyers and prospective partners from all over the world. We will keep strengthening our product offerings and variety to meet the changing consumer preferences,’ says Mr Steve Ong, Muar Furniture Association president. The Muar area accounts for 60% of the country’s furniture exports.

A new buyer referral initiative will be introduced in 2025 to add to the existing Valued Buyer Privilege hosted buyer programme offering complimentary hotel accommodation to first time visitors.

MIFF continues to champion young designers through the xOrdinary Showcase, which promotes their works and ideas, and the MIFF Furniture Design Competition that encourages emerging talent to pursue careers in the furniture : FDC 2025 will have the theme of The Fashion Inspired Furniture.
