Canada Furniture imports

Million US$Value of Canada furniture imports

Canada is an important player in the international furniture industry. It is a big and open market and a large producer, although slow growing. CSIL ranks the country as the 9th largest furniture producer and consumer at world level. In recent years the rapid growth of imports and the decline in exports have turned Canada into a net importer of furniture. Nevertheless Canada remains among the top ten exporters of furniture worldwide.
