Outdoor furniture is one of the best-performing segments within the European furniture industry, with a current overall market value that increased by about 30% cumulative compared to 2018. The largest consuming countries are Germany, the UK, Italy, and France, with a combined share of over 60%.
Although most sales in this sector continue to be in the retail segment, the share of sales of contract projects has increased in the past two years. Most outdoor furniture manufacturers interviewed by CSIL underlined a challenging market condition in the current year, while a recovery is expected for 2025.
European outdoor companies have structural connections with suppliers in China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. In recent years, however, some companies, especially those in the contract or luxury segment, have tried to reduce their dependence on Asian production by investing in manufacturing operations in Europe.
