Asia-Pacific is Expected to Grow at a Fast Pace
A significant number of people tend to move to large cities for better opportunities. This phenomenon gradually decreases the average living area and increases the cost of houses. Therefore, the folding furniture is the best suitable option. Cities like Beijing (China) possess high growth potential for the market. Urbanization is another factor that drives the growth of the folding furniture market, as it decreases the average living space and increases the value of available limited space, thereby making folding furniture the most suited option. Mumbai, Kolkata, Karachi, and Shenzhen are other cities that possess high growth potential. The increasing residential and non-residential construction activities in the region are driving the growth of the market.
North America and Europe are also major regions for the folding furniture market. The increasing demand for low-maintenance interior products is driving the growth of the market in these regions.
