Japan’s imports of wooden office furniture are small compared to the value of wooden bedroom and kitchen furniture imports. August data shows that year-on-year imports fell 21% while month-on-month imports were down over 30%, as ITTO reported.
Three suppliers, China Poland and Portugal account for just over 75% of all wooden office furniture imports. China tops the list at 66% and the combined supply from EU member states makes up most of the balance. Shippers in SE Asia account for only a small part of Japan’s wooden office furniture imports.
