Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC) was established in 1981 as the official representative body of Singapore’s furniture industry. It currently represents 95% of furniture manufacturers in Singapore, 65% of whom have subsidiary manufacturing plants in the region, including China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.
Its primary roles include promoting the interest of its members and the Singapore furniture industry, facilitating members’ exposure to the world market, creating more entrepreneurs through human resource development, developing local talents, creating more leading-edge and awardwinning designs by organising competitions such as the annual Furniture Design Award, forging strategic partnerships with government and trade-related agencies, harnessing technology and knowledge for growth through the use of information technology.
SFIC, the parent company of International Furniture Fair Singapore Pte Ltd, is the organiser of the annual International Furniture Fair Singapore and ASEAN Furniture Show. SFIC also manages the International Furniture Centre at Sungei Kadut and represents Singapore in the ASEAN Furniture Industries Council (AFIC).
SFIC’s core objective is to promote the interests of its members and to sustain and spearhead the growth of the Singapore furniture industry.
