A Series of exhibitions to display Myanmar’s furniture products are planned to take place next year at home and abroad for the purpose of seeking new business opportunities for Myanmar’s wood-based furniture products.
Organized by the Myanmar Rattan and Bamboo Entrepreneurs Association, value-added furniture will be displayed for sale at trade events not only in Myanmar but in Singapore and China, said Chairman U Kyaw Thu.
In partnership with the Wood-Based Furniture Association, the MRBEA plans to hold the first expo at Tatmadaw Exhibition Hall in Yangon in mid-February next year, with a focus on showcasing quality products through over 200 booths displaying over 100 different kinds of furniture for sale during the four-day expo starting from February 16.
The association will also take part in Singapore’s furniture expo in March and the China-ASEAN Furniture Expo in May, with plans to feature the country’s valued-added hyacinth and bamboo products.
Those fairs also aim to create networks among entrepreneurs to promote their products and encourage more value- added manufacturers in the furniture industry.
