The 51st CIFF, the leading furniture fair in Asia, will provide a concrete response to the major changes and new challenges at play in the global furniture market, creating a new business model to innovatively conceive and manage a major international exhibition event.
It will take place in two phases, reorganised by product sector in the new exhibition concept and layout.
The first phase, between 18–21 March, is dedicated to the living space. The Home Furniture sector will showcase the latest home furnishing products from leading Chinese and international companies. There will be an area dedicated to companies offering OEM/ODM services and one-stop solutions required by international buyers, once again underlining CIFF's role as a link between furniture manufacturing and global markets. Homedecor & Hometextile will focus on new trends in interior decoration: furniture accessories, lighting, paintings, decorative elements, and artificial flowers. Outdoor Furniture, Sunshade and Leisure will focus on the presentation of outdoor furniture such as tables, chairs, and awnings for the garden, as well as leisure equipment and decor. The second phase, from 28 to 31 March, will feature Office and Commercial Space, the world's largest trade fair dedicated to the office, exhibiting workplace systems and seating, trends and solutions in the smart office, as well as public, school, and commercial environments, and furniture for healthcare and for meeting the needs of older people. At the same time, CIFM/interzum Guangzhou 2023 will host leading Chinese and international brands presenting the most innovative technologies, machinery, materials, surfaces, and components essential for the increasingly innovative and intelligent development of the furniture industry.
