Indonesia’s premium furniture industry event, IFMAC will once again deliver an inspiring platform to motivate furniture industry players with new technologies, solutions and innovations this year. From the 9-12 October 2019, IFMAC will inject ideas from market leaders and renowned brands to allow domestic companies to gain better production output and manufacturing performance by embracing new production machinery, equipment and products. This industry-wide consensus has led to more than 50% of booth space already filled and the remaining reserved by returning companies. With this, IFMAC continues to prove itself as the preferred trade platform for industry players to strengthen their foothold in Indonesia’s burgeoning furniture industry.
