The European Market For Kitchen Furniture

The European Market For Kitchen Furniture

The Report 'The European market for kitchen furniture' analyses the production, consumption, international trade and distribution of kitchen furniture in 30 European countries.

The Report covers both kitchen furniture (at least six cabinets) and the built-in appliances sold through this channel. Completions or 'tails' (namely two or three units or less than one linear metre) were not considered in the number of kitchens sold because this would have significantly increased the number of statistical units, thus modifying average prices.

This Report is the result of:

information collected on approximately 150 sector companies, which are representative of 80% of total European production; the information was gathered either through active participation (direct replies to an interview or completion of a questionnaire) or through company balance sheets, figures and estimates;
analysis of CSIL databases for kitchen furniture in Europe and worldwide (financial movements, IP patents, and so on);
web scraping-localization of kitchen furniture specialists;
desk research concerning macroeconomic trends and sector performances;
official figures for foreign trade provided by Eurostat.
