Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/587a71/philippines_sourci) has announced the addition of the "Philippines Sourcing Report: Indoor & Outdoor Furniture" report to their offering.
The Philippines is touted as the "Milan of Asia", producing exquisite and innovative furniture. Aside from design, the wide range of materials used has attracted buyers looking for one-of-a-kind pieces. Exported models are showcased as accent pieces in homes, hotels, resorts and offices worldwide. Furniture made in the Philippines is known for its craftsmanship, structural integrity and innovative designs. Makers in the country have gained a reputation for producing unique pieces made of traditional and nontraditional materials.
This exclusive report answers key industry questions such as:
What are the latest design and material innovations?
What are the newest products available in the market?
Will export prices increase in coming months?
Where are the key production hubs?
With profiles of 27 confirmed export manufacturers, a comprehensive industry overview and detailed product and pricing information, this report will answer these questions, and more.
What you'll get
In-depth profiles of 13 major suppliers with a comprehensive look at their product and pricing strategy, manufacturing and export capability, verified contact details, and more. This information is not available anywhere else
Profile tables of 14 additional suppliers, with key information such as production capacities, export capabilities and key export markets

Results of the custom-designed supplier survey, which forecasts industry trends for the next 12 months
Verified supplier contact details, including names, e-mails, telephone numbers and websites of profiled makers
This report covers the two major types of furniture produced in the Philippines: indoor and outdoor furniture
The following are some of the key trends we see in the Philippines' indoor and outdoor furniture industry:
Exports in the line are expected to see slight growth in the next 12 months, with suppliers feeling the effects of the housing slowdown
Makers will either maintain current prices or increase quotes slightly in the coming months. The intensifying competition from furniture makers in other countries in Asia has made Philippine companies cautious of raising product quotes
Many suppliers will continue to concentrate their R&D efforts on material innovation in coming months. Companies will maintain their focus on locally available materials as a response to the fluctuating costs of imported materials
The majority of Philippine-made furniture is currently shipped to the US. This market concentration, however, may change as a growing number of suppliers target emerging markets such as Russia, India and other countries in Asia
