Summary: a brief statement of the content of the report
The Middle East report includes six countries: Egypt, Israel, Kuwait, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The region aggregate furniture demand amounts to US$ 4.6 billion at production prices; yet it is worth stressing that each country has its own peculiarities.
Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are definitely net furniture importers. Their economies can rely on huge oil and gas reserves and feature fast growing construction sectors, with great prospects of profits for furniture exporters, both in the low and high end markets.
Egypt instead displays a dynamic furniture industry, which has proven more and more successful in the international markets thanks to skilled labour force and improving business management.
The Lebanese furniture industry entered a recovery path and can count on a growing domestic market as well as the geographical and cultural proximity to other Middle East markets.
