After two years of unexpectedly strong growth, the furniture sector in Italy began to contract in 2023. Inflation, rising interest rates, and a global environment marked by significant uncertainty have greatly impacted consumption and investments.
CSIL’s estimates for 2024 outline an improving outlook for the sector, although keeps facing challenges in both domestic and international demand. In the coming years, the Italian furniture sector is expected to gradually recover, gaining more momentum starting in 2026, with subsequent impacts across different segments.
The trade balance will remain largely positive throughout the forecast period.
